Here are three stories by the finest Western writers who ever lived.

In "Caon Walls" by Zane Grey, Smoke Bellew enters a remote Mormon settlement only

her ranch a financial success, while also falling in love with her wanton daughter. But it is
too good to last. The law follows him.

troublemakerprotecting a man wanted by the law. Then her two cousins, who have been
dodging the law, return home but decide to join a gang in a bank holdup.

In "The Sixth Shotgun" by Louis L'Amour, Leo Carver is about to be hung. The only problem
is that a lot of folks are indebted to Leo for one thing or another.

Zane Grey (1872-1939), born in Ohio, was practicing dentistry in New York when he and his wife published his first novel themselves. Grey presented the West as a moral battleground, in which his characters are destroyed because of their inability to change or be redeemed through a final confrontation with their past. The man whose name is synonymous with Westerns made his first trip west in 1907, at age thirty-five. Motion picture rights brought in a fortune, with 109 films based on his work.

Max Brand® is the best-known pen name of widely acclaimed author Frederick Faust, creator of Destry, Dr. Kildare, and other beloved fictional characters who have become familiar through his books, motion pictures and radio programs. Born in Seattle in 1892 and orphaned at an early age, he grew up in rural California and later attended the University of California at Berkeley. He wrote under twenty pen names, with an output exceeding thirty million words. At age fifty-one, he abandoned his writing career to become a war correspondent in World War II, and was killed while serving in Italy.
