CATTLE DRIVE WESTERNS: FOUR FULL NOVELS gathers four acclaimed western novels of life on the hard trail — every pages heavy with the dust, danger, and long miles enduring while riding behind restless herds.
THE COMANCHE KID by James Robert Daniels.
A Spur Award Finalist for Best Western
“Daniels has crafted a mercilessly taut, masterfully paced, heart-pounding western that conjures such classics as Death Rides a Horse, and True Grit.” Jonathan Evison, New York Times bestselling author of West of Here.
A young woman disguised as a boy joins up with a cattle drive in her quest to hunt down the Indians who massacred her family.
THE LONG WAY NORTH by Jim Bosworth
“The story of one of the last great cattle drives. The trek is a very real, engrossing experience.” New York Times
A brutal drive becomes a test of endurance, judgment, and survival as pressure mounts with every mile.
THE TRAIL BOSS by Walter Gann
“An authentic and vivid picture of cow country.” El Paso Herald Post
This classic explores the harsh responsibilities of leadership, where holding an outfit together can be harder than moving the cattle.
WHOLE HOG by David Wagoner
“Wagoner is the closest nowadays approximation of Mark Twain himself.” Philadelphia Inquirer.
After the massacre of his family, and the theft of his herd, young Zeke Hunt makes a perilous journey across the Great Plains with all he has left — his scalp and his three hogs.
Four complete novels. Classic westerns at full stride.
