A Century of Great Western Stories - Paperback
by John Jakes (Editor)
John Jakes, #1 New York Times bestselling author of such acclaimed historical novels as North and South and The Kent Family Chronicles compiled in one volume a century's worth of his favorite American Western fiction.
To illustrate the evolution of the genre, Jakes has included such legendary authors as Owen Wister, Louis L'Amour, and Zane Grey along side their more contemporary peers such as Loren Estleman and Elmer Kelton. While the stories have changed over the years, certain timeless themes of Western fiction remain constant. At the heart of the stories are ideas that have become synonymous with the American dream--the frontier spirit, individual freedoms, and man's relationship with the land.
John Jakes (1932 - 2023) was the bestselling author of The Kent Family Chronicles, The North and South Trilogy, and The Crown Family Saga. He lived in South Carolina and Connecticut.
