About this listen
A collection of classic Western tales
Tappan's Burro by Zane Grey
Prospecting was lonely business for Tappan, but his burro Jenet was good company, and she knew the trails and waterholes better than Tappan. She tracked with him, faithful, his only friend. And he repays her with a final, supreme effort of heart, will, and spirit.
Jargan M by Max Brand
Jargan, a summer gambler wintering in the western town of Big Horn, saves the life of Don José Cordoba and unwittingly acquires a new job. Soon he finds himself on a boat to Buenos Aires as the handler - and protector - of two extraordinary horses.
The Trail to Crazy Man by Louis L'Amour
Shanghaied into forced labor on a merchant vessel, Charles Rodney dies aboard ship from repeated beatings - but not before deeding part of his ranch to Rafe Caradec, whom he hopes will protect his family.

A young gunslinger is changed for the better by meeting a beautiful woman. A classic range-war Western, this novel features that powerful, romantic, strangely compelling vision of the American West for which L'Amour's fiction is known. In the author's words, "It was a land where nothing was small, nothing was simple. Everything, the lives of men and the stories they told, ran to extremes."

These stories represent Louis L'Amour at his best - stirring adventure tales of the ageless Old West, as tough and gritty as the men who tames it. Each story is personally selected, with an introduction and special historical notes, by the author. Meet men like Shad Marone, the gunfighter who killed in self-defense, but who is forced to run because he killed the wrong man - the sheriff's brother; Matt Sabre, as tough as the Texas trail he rides, on a mission of mercy to the wife of the man he gunned down; and Kim Sartain, a reckless young drifter who refuses to back down from a showdown with a vicious outlaw killer

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu.

Stories Of The Golden West Book 3
Tappan's Burro by Zane Grey
Feb 10, 2022
This was an interesting story, but I'm used to happy ever afters. I definitely didn't like the ending.
Jargon by Max Brand
Feb 11, 2023
I guess I didn't understand the ending. Some stories are like this. Great detail in the beginning and then the ending come so fast, you're still confused when it's done. The parts I understood I liked.
The Trail to Crazy Man by Louis L'Amour
Again the ending was lacking for me. But the rest of the story was very interesting.
The small biographies of these writers were almost as interesting as their books!
The narrators did excellent work! I enjoyed them very much!

The Trail to Crazy Man
Any additional comments?
The Trail to Crazy Man has the same storyline as Crossfire Trail and same characters, wondering what the difference is.

Outstanding Story/Great Reader!
This is a classic Louis L'Amour Story with guns, horses, fierce fistfights, and a fair Lady being cheated or some other offense. Very authentic settings in the great west!

Three fines western stories
The first two stories were good and I enjoyed the surprise endings. Louis L'Amour showed himself to be the master of the westerns I love. His hero is noble and brave. These are good reads.
