Life Out West

In this three-book compilation, follow three men from different walks of life as they set out West and explore swaths of uncharted land. Visit the American frontier with them as they learn to homestead, co-exist with Indians, and move past the horrors of the American Civil War to start their lives anew. Half-Pawnee Jimmy Tall Tree faces many trials not only because of his half-breed status, but because of the dangers involved in running stage stations with his father and uncles. These dangers plague Jimmy and his family as they attempt to make an honest living in a country riddled with war deserters and criminals. Joshua Carter is in the wrong place at the wrong time. He sets out West with his older brother, who's just been discharged from the army, in hopes of starting a new life. Instead, he finds himself accused of train robbery and murder. David Bentson is an army major whose wounds render him no longer fit for duty. He, along with a pair of fellow discharged soldiers, embark up on a journey West. Along the way they pick up several other travelers and eventually end up in Wyoming, where he joins the U.S. Marshal service and finds himself charged with saving young girls from being kidnapped by Indians. These tales are classic Lazslo Endrody and will catapult readers right into the American West in the nineteenth century.
