THE OLD WEST IN FICTION

Two full novels (The Virginian and Grant of Kingdom), excerpts from three others (The Sky, The Searchers and The Long Rille), short stories and a TV script make up this collection which accents the time when the West was really the West. From Stephen Crane, Owen Wister, Zane Grey, Eugene Manlove Rhodes and Stewart Edward White, on to Haycox, Conrad Richter, Van Tilburg Clark and John Steinbeck -- and others -- the inclusions are from practised top -- hands.
