Description
Adventures and Western. Book 8: 1. Donnegan; 2. The Garden of Eden; 3. The Cure of Silver Cañon.
1. Donnegan: Published - 1923.
A typical early 20th century western. It's a tale of a tough guy who gets involved with an evil man with an angel daughter for whom the tough guy falls. His efforts to recover hers and her father's gold mine claims is the story. Not a lot of shoot em up but enough story to make one want to finish the book to see how things work out.
"It was time then for action, and Lefty Joe prepared for the descent into the home of the enemy. Let it not be thought that he approached this moment with a fallen heart, and with a cringing, snaky feeling as a man might be expected to feel when he approached to murder a sleeping foeman. For that was not Lefty's emotion at all. Rather he was overcome by a tremendous happiness. He could have sung with joy at the thought that he was about to rid himself of this pest..."
2. The Garden of Eden: Published - 1922.
Ben Connor is a gambler who knows horses. He goes out west to get away from the gambling life he has been leading in New York. There he discovers a breed of grey horses that he thinks are the best horses he has ever seen. The problem is that these horses are bred in a secret valley known as the Garden of Eden and that outsiders are not welcome there. Connor sees these horses as a means of getting rich on the race tracks, but how to get one is a problem. A great horse story coupled with the typical excitement one expects from Max Brand makes this a great book.
3. The Cure of Silver Cañon: Published - 1921.
This ebook edition presents a western mystery and features Lew Carney, a lone traveler, a ghostly wagon, pulled by eight silent men at night, a dead man, shot in the back, and a beautiful girl with fear in her eyes.
