Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
From rodeos to rustlers, from ranch life to the outlaw trail, Elmer Kelton's take on the human condition shows us life in Texas as it was back then: simpler but harder, with danger always present. Filled with unforgettable characters and adventure, and imbued with a love of the time, the people, and the place, these stories take us from the earliest days of the Wild West well into the twentieth century, each one embodying a passion for life that's as wide as Texas sky.
A heck of a promise -- Blind canyon -- Bullets from the past -- Climb the big rim -- Colt size -- Land with no law -- No epitaph for me -- One son -- Poison -- Ride a straight road -- Deadly homecoming.
