A collection of two stories by beloved Western writer Louis L'Amour

In "The Trail to Peach Meadow Canyon," Mike Bastian has been raised by outlaw chief Ben Curry and trained in frontier skills by Curry's most trusted associates. Curry now wants to retire from leadership of the gang he has headed for years. But he is frustrated in this ambition by various factions within his gang who want to seize leadership and by Mike himself, who is not sure that he wants to lead the life of an outlaw.

In "Showdown Trail," Rock Bannon, wounded in an Indian attack, is rescued by a wagon train. When the train pulls into a fort to stock up on supplies, the leaders of the train meet the smooth-talking Morton Harper, who persuades them to take an easier trail. But Bannon knows that there will be no escape from attack on that routeโ€”and that it will lead the train directly into Hardy Bishop's vicious land war.

Louis Lโ€™Amourย (1908โ€“1988) was an American author whose Western stories are loved the world over. Born in Jamestown, North Dakota, he was the most decorated author in the history of American letters. In 1982 he was the first American author ever to be awarded a Special National Gold Medal by the United States Congress for lifetime literary achievement, and in 1984 President Reagan awarded him the Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor in the nation. He was also a recipient of the Theodore Roosevelt Rough Rider Award.

Jim Goughโ€™s distinctive voice is well known in the Southwest through his hundreds of commercials and radio shows. He has also appeared in such feature films as Urban Cowboy, Places in the Heart, and JFK. A native of Austin, Texas, he can also be found entertaining with his western swing band, the Cosmopolitan Cowboys.

Reviews

โ€œโ€˜The Trail to Peach Meadow Canyonโ€™ is vintage L'Amour and enhanced with the dramatic and skilled narrative talents of Jim Goughโ€ฆenthusiastically recommended.โ€

โ€œNarrator Jim Goughโ€™s unmistakable Texas twang sets the stage for another Lโ€™Amour classicโ€ฆItโ€™s easy enough to slip into Lโ€™Amourโ€™s Wild West of creaking saddles and pungent campfires and imagine characters who can fight their way out of rawhide ropes and track a villain over the hardest terrain.โ€
