Riding for the Brand: Stories

by Louis L'Amour

Overview

The open West was a land where wanderers could find themselves a home—one to fight for, be changed by, sometimes to die for. Jed Asbury was one such journeyman, taking on the identity of a dead person. Allen Ring was another: He’d won his plot of land in a card game only to find he had to win again with a gun. From a has-been boxer to a ranch hand taking on his bosses’ troubles, the characters in these classic Louis L’Amour short stories are all “riding for the brand”—staying loyal to what matters, staking the West with their courage and their blood.
