Of Men and Mountains

Of Men and Mountains PDF Author: William O. Douglas
Publisher: Read Books Ltd
ISBN: 1447482492
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 375

Book Description
William O. Douglas was one of that rare mix of man that helped define America, a judge of the supreme court and also a lifelong outdoorsman. This is his story in his words and conveys the joy he felt for the wild untouched vastness of the great forests and the high snow capped peaks which he pitted himself against. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

The Best Western Stories of Lewis B. Patten

Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 194

Book Description
Patten's characters are real people whose lives are shattered by the violence of a gunshot, who suffer from the brutality of misplaced hatred, and who sometimes succeed in living off the rugged land of the West and sometimes do not. Robert E. Briney says in his introduction that Patten was a "teller of well-constructed tales, framed by a tough-minded sensibility . . . set forth in a crisp, efficient prose." This is the first collection of short stories by one of the most respected writers of Western fiction, a three-time winner of the Spur Award from the Western Writers of America.
