- Synopsis
- In these classic stories acclaimed author Jack Schaefer yet again captures the spirit and adventure of the Old West. First Blood, Schaefer&’s follow-up to Shane, tells the tale of Jess Harker, a young stagecoach driver finding his way in this coming-of-age story. Jess admires Race Crimm, the Company&’s top messenger, for his stature and wild abandon and would have &“shucked ten years of [his] life to be driving beside him.&” Jess, eager to ride the big trails, has the chance to prove himself by driving an important shipment when trouble arises. Facing hard choices of honor and justice, he must pick a side because his life might just depend on it. &“Jacob,&” &“Salt of the Earth,&” and &“One Man&’s Honor&” complete this engaging collection of stories by award-winning American treasure Jack Schaefer.
