H.A. Cody

Robert W. Chambers
This story is about love, about love for many people. The main character was thirty-three years old, it was pleasant to look at him, he was very developed. Mr. Keynes is a detective with an uncanny knack for solving strange disappearances.
Arthur Conan Doyle
Ten tourists from England, Ireland, America and France, six men and four women are on a vacation trip down the Nile in 1895. Without warning they are captured by Islamic terrorists, and the possibility of rescue becomes more remote with each passing day. Their choice is a stark one: either convert to Islam and become slaves for the rest of their lives or die. In this story, the reader is swept out of the placid stream of existence and dashed against the horrible jagged facts of life. Written toward the end of the Victorian era and permeated with a sense of fear and uncertainty, this story calls into question the moral authority of Europes presence in the Arab peninsula and the cultural supremacy of British colonialism, all the while demonstrating Conan Doyles unparalleled ability as a storyteller.
Zane Grey
A great story by the greatest novelist of the American West. This one is about the tough men and women who made their living by obtaining herds of cattle and driving them across large territories to be sold. Driving forty-five hundred longhorns is hard enough, but in addition to leading the biggest cattle drive in the history of the Chisholm Trail, Adam Brite and his ten trail-hardened partners have to contend with the fury of nature and man. They were going all the way from San Antonio to Dodge. They expected plenty of trouble. They got it... Lots of action, quick shooting, slow drawling cowboys. A romance with a girl masquerading as a boy horse wrangler, but her identity is early discovered so the proprieties remain unscathed.

Robert E. Howard
An Irish-American warrior passes himself of as a Kurd and sets out to steal the treasure of Tartary. This is one of Robert E, Howards fast-paced short stories, featuring lots of fights and sliced entrails. Not one of his best works, in my opinion, as it somehow lacks substance. It seemed all hell and no notion.
Willa Cather
A collection of poignant stories about art and artists, about those who love them and those who dont. Every story in this book is about artists and disappointment. Three stories are Western, two of them set in Kansas and Wyoming, and the third is about a woman from Nebraska traveling through Boston.

Charles Alden Seltzer
