No one instructs tales of the frontier better than Louis L'Amour, who portrays the human aspect of westward development - the good and the bad - before the days of legislations and order. Collected here are seven reports penned by America's favorite European author. "The Dark colored Rock Coffin Maker" Two men in the isolated town of Tucker want the XY ranch: Jim Walker and the ruthless Wing Cary - and one of these wants it terribly enough to kill for it. It can be an account of suspense and hazard, with chases, posses, shootouts, and double-crosses - all for possession of the XY ranch. "Grub Series Rider" KimSartain is an easygoing, peace-loving drifter. But when cattleman Jim Targ challenges Sartain's right to drive across an unclaimed stretch of meadow, Sartain retaliates by deciding to homestead there. Soon, more is at risk than land and take great pride in, when Targ chooses to instruct Sartain a everlasting - and dangerous - lesson. "Desert Death Tune" Nat Bodine got a choice: to expire by suspending or take his chances in the desert. But when a good girl believes in a man, he discovers the will to endure.

To his delight, the man on his deathbed provides him $5,000 and begs him to adopt the money to his partner, who is by itself defending the family ranch. Guilt, regret, and wanting to do the right thing lead Matt Sabre to make that ride.
