Big Eli qualified on every count and yet in caring for his motherless son, Little Eli, he displayed a tenderness and gentleness that any mother might envy.

It was Little Eli's ambition to grow up to become a man his father could be proud of and who could in his turn come to blow the Gabriel Horn.

The Gauntlet
by Max BrandFIRST TIME IN PAPERBACK! Max Brand's novels and stories-certainly among the greatest in Western fiction-are always peopled with true, realistic characters and marked by a sense of authenticity few other authors could match. Three of the best examples of this are the short novels found in this collection, each painstakingly restored to Brand's original version. The opening novel tells the tale of a legendary friendship between two men who could take on a whole saloon of tough frontiersmen, but who run into trouble with beautiful Kate Malone. "The King of Rats" features the man known as Reata, a master of the rawhide rope, a man caught between his sense of duty and his love for a gypsy girl. And in the title novel, Joseph Larrimee finally makes a gold strike that would prove his worth to his family . . . but he's willing to give it all up to rescue a mysterious woman from a gang of hardcases.

Then a robbery took place, one that could only have been committed by a man of exceptional strength. As Dusty Fog, Mark Counter and the Ysabel Kid looked down at the shattered skull of the victim, they began to wonder if the "Gentle Giant" was really as gentle as he seemed.
The Gentleman Outlaw and Me
by Mary Downing HahnA &“ripsnorting western . . . With plenty of twists and turns—and a cameo appearance by Doc Holliday—it&’s a real cowgirl triumph&” (Kirkus Reviews). In 1887, twelve-year-old Eliza Yates—disguised as a boy—sets out with her faithful dog Caesar to search for her missing father. Along the way, she falls in with gentleman outlaw Calvin Featherbone. &“Together, they make their way to Tinville, Colorado, where, coincidentally, Calvin&’s father was killed by a certain Sheriff Yates. Calvin plans to avenge the murder, but he gets himself and Eliza in so much trouble with his amateurish schemes that the pair arrives in town ready to be hanged as horse thieves. Hahn&’s writing crackles like gunshot in the Ol&’ West, and Eliza and Calvin make a lovable team. The plotting is . . . tight and fast paced, and Hahn does a fine job of recreating the atmosphere of the days of cowboys and miners&” (Booklist). &“Hahn has obviously done her research, and succeeds in bringing the ambiance of the Old West to her novel. The result is a fast, funny, and entertaining adventure that&’s just the thing for fans of Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman.&”—School Library Journal &“An amusing comedy of errors that derives much of its humor from Calvin&’s speech and manners and Eliza&’s wry asides alluding to her true identity as a girl.&”—Kirkus Reviews
