About this listen

Six-time Spur Award winner Elmer Kelton was named the greatest Western author of all time by the Western Writers of America. In this novel, 18-year-old farmer Trey McLean aspires to be a cattle rancher. He leaves East Texas with four cows and heads west, but a corrupt sheriff quickly steals the animals. Helpless and confused, Trey finds trouble with a dangerous fugitive. But he also finds comfort and opportunity with a rancher’s lovely daughter.

Another great story from a marvelous western story teller Elmer Kelton read by George Guidall one of the best narrators that I’ve had the pleasure to listen to. A story of coming of age in a time when growing up was fraught with many obstacles both from the land and the people that occupied it. Don’t let the title scare you off.

A pumpkin roller it’s not!

I was hooked from the first page!
There’s romance, from fighting and suspense all rolled into one.
It was really hard for me to find a stopping place.
I really think everyone will enjoy this book.

Like all of Elmer Kelton's books, this story takes a toll on the listener like the hard country in which it plays out. Yet it shows the world with a simple and honest beauty, one where a good life is rewarded in the end.

Hard and Beautiful

Good story line following a young couple. Elmer Kelton must be old school, because decency and moral integrity part of his story. No swearing, respect for marriage made this a pleasant listen. Real men who worked hard and looked out for others and tried to guide young men in a good way. Successful adult life is more about work than play, and Elmer's characters, male and female, knew how to work. Some villains. Characters who were not perfect. Some action. Interesting portrayal of cowboy life, which seemed accurate.

Narrator excellent.

Totally recommend this book.

Excellent Western! Every minute interesting.

I liked the time period and the western theme. The characters fit perfectly, but not enough depth in the story.
