Here is the original 1949 pulp magazine version of this classic Louis L'Amour novel, featuring one of his most famous characters, Lance Kilkenny. Eastern educated, drawn to the western plains after the Civil War, Kilkenny was a loner and legendary gunfighter who picked his causes carefully.
Mort Davis had saved Lance Kilkenny's life, and now Davis needed Kilkenny's help. Davis had filed a claim in the Live Oak country on a water hole near Lost Creek, an area dominated by two cattlemen, each claiming rights to the water hole--and each willing to kill or be killed in order to hold it.
But Kilkenny didn't expect to meet Nita Riordan, the beautiful, strong-willed owner of the Apple Canyon Saloon, or to find himself instantly drawn to her...or she to him. Nita warns Kilkenny that a mysterious man behind the scenes is orchestrating a range war and has already hired men to kill him.
In order to save Davis and prevent the war, Kilkenny knows he will have to think fast--and shoot faster.
Includes a special Foreword about the author and book. (Cover adapted from the original pulp magazine cover image.)
