Everyone was dead. Indian raiders massacred the entire wagon train. Only seven-year-old Hardy Collins and three-year-old Betty Sue Powell, managed to survive. With a knife, a faithful stallion, and the survival lessons his father taught him, Hardy must face the challenges of the open prairie as they head west in search of help. Using ingenuity and common sense, Hardy builds shelters, forages for food, and learns to care for Betty Sue. But their journey through this hostile wilderness is being tracked by even more hostile men. And, as he struggles to keep them alive, Hardy realizes that their survival may depend on his ability to go far beyond what his father had been able to teach him.

Excellent! The characters were well-developed and demonstrated a variety of human natures, from the base to the noble. Big Red was amazing.

This book was well written and well read. It featured a surprise hero and kept my interest from beginning to end.

We have listened to most of Louis L’Amour’s books and really enjoyed this one. Very different because of the children being the main characters, All comes together at the end.

Kept us at the edge of our seats!

This stand alone book is very different from the typical western focused on a child.

Louis L'Amour must have spent a fair bit of time in the backwoods. His descriptions of the country, the effects of the weather and the loneliness of the back country are so apposite. Great story, good narration. What is not to like?

I loved this story line. To have children survive so long through so much adversity was amazing and shows so much talent the author had for telling a good story.

This is really a great Louis L’Amour novel about a young boy, his horse, and young girl who survive an Indian attack because they were away from the rest of the wagon trail party. Although I usually don’t like stories about children doing extra ordinary things, Louis L’Amour made the story believable.

It is a heart wrenching survival story, with lots of excitement.

Great narration. Highly recommended!

Great book! Brought tears to my eyes!
