The Real Western Canon

Larry McMurtry, the preeminent chronicler of the American West, celebrates the best of contemporary Western short fiction, introducing a stellar collection of twenty stories that represent, in various ways, the coming-of-age of the legendary American frontier.

Featuring a veritable Who's Who of the century's most distinctive writers, this collection effectively departs from the standard superstars of the Western genre. McMurtry has chosen a refreshing range of work that, when taken as a whole, depicts the evolution and maturation of Western writing over several decades. The featured tales are not so concerned with the American West of history and geography as they are with the American West of the imagination -- one that is alternately comic, gritty, individual, searing, and complex.

English novelist Harold E. Bindloss spent a number of years in Western Canada during his youth. Because of these experiences, many of his novels deal with the prairies and their settlement. He produced over 30 such novels in addition to many other works, including In the Niger Country (1898), Wide Dominion (1899), Damaged Reputation (1908), Masters of the Wheat-Lands (1910), Carmen's Messenger (1917), The Girl From Keller's (1917), Sadie's Conquest (1918), Lister's Great Adventure (1920), Pine-Creek Ranch (1926), Border Trail (1931) Jungle Gold (1932) and Forbidden Rivers (1936).

This Novel will capture your heart and mind as you begin this pilgrimage with Red (Fingers) Bolton. He left his high desert homeland in pursuit on the drifters that had killed his family. His journey led him far into the Northwest Territory of Oregon. This action packed western thriller is a love story between a young man and his beautiful devoted wife who experience extreme dramatic events early in 1874.

The book you are about to read is a story about four men and a woman. They terrorist people every where they go, they rape, kill, and rob. The men are Harold the English Man, he is a tall thin blond man he was very good with explosives. Then there is Anton a dirty little Mexican that most likely did not know what soap and water was all about. Sammy, well, he was the strong man with arms like tree trunks he could snap a man's spine like a twig. Ah Phillip a lady's man, love them, and then kill them.

Jane Withersteen gazed down the wide purple slope with dreamy and troubled eyes. A rider had just left her and it was his message that held her thoughtful and almost sad, awaiting the churchmen who were coming to resent and attack her right to befriend a Gentile. She wondered if the unrest and strife that had lately come to the little village of Cottonwoods was to in-volve her. And then she sighed, remembering that her father had founded this remotest border settlement of southern Utah and that he had left it to her. She owned all the ground and many of the cottages. Withersteen House was hers, and the great ranch, with its thousands of cattle, and the swiftest horses of the sage. To her belonged Amber Spring, the water which gave verdure and beauty to the village and made living possible on that wild purple upland waste. She could not escape being involved by whatever befell Cottonwoods.

Jim wasn't fooling me, she said. "He meant it. He's going straight for the border ... Oh, why did I taunt him " It was indeed a wild place, that southern border of Idaho, and that year was to see the ushering in of the wildest time probably ever known in the West. The rush for gold had peopled California with a horde of lawless men of every kind and class. And the vigilantes and then the rich strikes in Idaho had caused a reflux of that dark tide of humanity. Strange tales of blood and gold drifted into the camps, and prospectors and hunters met with many unknown men.

The residents of Three Corners, Texas are in shock to realize that, even in the time following the Civil War, their quiet town is a lawless place. They are threatened by the news of a gang of desperados who have slaughtered a group of innocent people from another state.

The townspeople know that they may be next, and so they enlist the help of Elias Trace, a man battle-tested from the Civil War. Even though he's seen enough blood to last a lifetime, he knows he must do whatever he can to prevent violence from coming to the town where he's come to live a peaceful life.

Likewise, Elias shudders to think of any harm being done to the beautiful Emma Mann, who recently became a widow. Meanwhile, Emma finds herself battling the feelings she feels for the newcomer.

If he wants to protect Emma and the town, Elias must lead a militia of ranch hands, young boys and women against a band of outlaws. There can only be one outcome in "From Hell to Breakfast,"

It was there in the white heart of the dying campfire; it hung in the shadows that hovered over the flickering light; it drifted in the darkness beyond. This hour, when the day had closed and the lonely desert night set in with its dead silence, was one in which Cameron's mind was thronged with memories of a time long past - of a home back in Peoria, of a woman he had wronged and lost, and loved too late. He was a prospector for gold, a hunter of solitude, a lover of the drear, rock-ribbed infinitude, because he wanted to be alone to remember. A sound disturbed Cameron's reflections. He bent his head listening. A soft wind fanned the paling embers, blew sparks and white ashes and thin smoke away into the enshrouding circle of blackness. His burro did not appear to be moving about. The quiet split to the cry of a coyote. It rose strange, wild, mournful - not the howl of a prowling upland beast baying the campfire or barking at a lonely prospector, but the wail of a wolf, full-voiced, crying out the meaning of the desert and the night.

It was a day typical of early April in New York, rather cold and gray, with steely sunlight. Spring breathed in the air, but the women passing along Fifty-seventh Street wore furs and wraps. She heard the distant clatter of an L train and then the hum of a motor car. A hurdy-gurdy jarred into the interval of quiet. Glenn has been gone over a year, she mused, "three months over a year-and of all his strange letters this seems the strangest yet." She lived again, for the thousandth time, the last moments she had spent with him. It had been on New-Year's Eve, 1918. They had called upon friends who were staying at the McAlpin, in a suite on the twenty-first floor overlooking Broadway. And when the last quarter hour of that eventful and tragic year began slowly to pass with the low swell of whistles and bells, Carley's friends had discreetly left her alone with her lover, at the open window, to watch and hear the old year out, the new year in. Glenn Kilbourne had returned from France early that fall, shell-shocked and gassed, and otherwise incapacitated for service in the army-a wreck of his former sterling self and in many unaccountable ways a stranger to her. Cold, silent, haunted by something, he had made her miserable with his aloofness. But as the bells began to ring out the year that had been his ruin Glenn had drawn her close, tenderly, passionately, and yet strangely, too.
