Editorial Reviews:

"Stagecoach" (originally called "Stage to Lordsburg") is a 1937 short story by the prolific pulp writer Ernest Haycox, of whom Ernest Hemingway once said, "I read The Saturday Evening Post whenever it has a serial by Ernest Haycox". "Stagecoach" famously inspired the 1939 movie of the same title, effectively launching John Wayne's career.

Though the story is short, its characterizations are deep, and 2003 Audie Award winner Rick Rohan further distinguishes each western traveler in the narrative with his varied and resonant performance. Haycox's story stands out amongst its contemporaries in not resorting to caricature to make an impact. Rohan seems to understand the author's intent, and he delivers the dialogue smoothly and distinctly without a lot of bells and whistles.

Into the Harsh Land the Coach Went

I am looking at this exact edition of this book as I write this review. I have had it for more than thirty years and it still looks good--no foxing nor yellowing of pages, and the print is still quite dark. As to the stories in this volume: Stage to Lordsburg was the story the movie Stagecoach was taken from which made John Wayne a star in 1939. Yet you will not find the "Ringo Kid" in the short story. The character is called Malpais Bill. The whiskey drummer is there, the gambler, an Englishman, a cattleman, the shady lady, and the army girl, and the main plot line. Yet one can "see" how this story affected the screenwriter as he composed his screenplay. The other eight stories take you into "Haycox Country" as only he could do--accurate to description and history; filled with boldness and danger at every turn of the trail--an untamed land. The hard back edition is titled By Rope and Lead, so you get the idea of how harsh this country was on law breakers and "bad" men. You want be disappointed in this book of stories.

Title: A Simple Christmas

Publisher's Summary:

Christmas has become synonymous with shopping, overindulging, competition, and stress. But according to Mike Huckabee (who was a pastor before getting into politics), that was never God's intention. Going back to the nativity, Christmas is supposed to be about simple things: faith, love, family, and hope. The hard part, in today's crazy world, is remembering that those simple things are the most precious of all.

Meet men like Shad Marone, the gunfighter who killed in self-defense, but who is forced to run because he killed the wrong man - the sheriff's brother; Matt Sabre, as tough as the Texas trail he rides, on a mission of mercy to the wife of the man he gunned down; and Kim Sartain, a reckless young drifter who refuses to back down from a showdown with a vicious outlaw killer.

Every story in this collection bears Louis L'Amour's distinctive brand of unbridled action and unembellished authenticity - taking us into the white-hot deserts, stone-cold canyons, and rough-and-tumble towns of the world only he knows so well.
