The Bold Frontier - John Jakes

. .

Résumé :
Patricia Cornwell hails New York Times bestselling author John Jakes as the best historical novelist of our time, with such epics as the Crown Family Saga, the Kent Family Chronicles and the North and South Trilogy. But Jakes is also a prolific short fiction writer. This special edition of one of his all-time classic collections includes a new introduction from the author -- and three additional stories set against the untamed territory of the American West.These tales capture the glory and suffering of the men and women of the era -- from a strange saloon shootout and a trapper seeking vengeance against a fur company to double-crossing outlaws and a duel between medicine men. John Jakes's thrilling stories span the legacy -- and fuel the imagination -- of the American frontier.
