Readers searching for courage and adventure will find just that and
more in the engaging prose of Jack Schaefer in this vintage
collection of Western vignettes. Exploring varied tales of life in
the West, Schaefer shares the stories of exceptional characters
conflicted with humanity as they navigate the challenges and
opportunities that can only be found on the frontier. From the
humor in "Cat Nipped" to the common concerns found in "Prudence by
Name," Jack Schaefer again places himself as the authentic voice of
the West. Other stories in the collection include "Something Lost,"
"Leander Frailey," "That Mark Horse," "My Town," "Harvey Kendall,"
"Out of the Past," "Old Anse," "Takes a Real Man," and "Hugo
Kertchak, Builder." Published throughout the early 1950s, these
stories have captured our hearts and imaginations as true classics
in Western fiction and will continue to do so time and time again.
