George is a brave guy. The one for whom everyone experiences in this story. He does not think twice about doing the right thing. George takes and does. He did his best to cope with the difficulties in the open prairie. This is a story about a brave fight on a ranch and farm in the Canadian prairie.
Max Brand
Frederick Schiller Faust (1892-1944) was an American author best known for his thoughtful Westerns under the pen name Max Brand. Prolific in many genres, he wrote historical novels, detective mysteries, pulp fiction stories and many more. This is one of his work. Three men, each traveling alone, head for the town of Loomis, where they will meet in a violent confrontation that will leave one of them dead by morning. The plot is well constructed with well drawn subsidiary characters and provides a number of interesting twists. Highly recommended, especially for those who love the Old Western genre.

The singing of the swords was a deathly clamor in the brain of Godric de Villehard. Blood and sweat veiled his eyes and in the instant of blindness he felt a keen point pierce a joint of his hauberk and sting deep into his ribs. Smiting blindly, he felt the jarring impact that meant his sword had gone home, and snatching an instants grace, he flung back his vizor and wiped the redness from his eyes.

Jan Potocki
Monumentalna powieść Jana Potockiego o szkatułkowej kompozycji. Składa się na nią wiele wątków i historii jedne wynikają z drugich i wzajemnie się zazębiają, podzielone są przy tym na dni, które wyznaczają rytm opowiadania. Główny bohater, Alfons von Worden, przeżywa niezwykłe przygody, które układają się w fascynującą, spójną i zaskakującą opowieść.

Zane Grey
Riders of the Purple Sage is Zane Greys best-known novel. Originally published in 1912, it was one of the earliest works of Western fiction and played a significant role in popularizing that genre. The story uses a third person narrator to tell the story from the point of view of two main characters Bern Venter and Jane Withersteen and a few minor characters. Jane Withersteen, Mormon-born Utah native, goes against her church when she befriends a young Gentile rider, Venters. He is trailing the mysterious Masked Rider through the Old West. Both Venters and a notorious gunman named Lassiter bring adventure, intrigue, and romance to the Withersteen ranch. The story is also somewhat complex, with several plots unfolding that eventually come together at the end of the story, and conveniently leave open the certainty of a sequel.
Max Brand

B.M. Bower
