About this audiobook

This edition has been fully restored with modern typesetting, custom cover design. Ernest Haycox, a master storyteller of the American frontier, plunges readers into the raw and challenging landscapes of a nation being forged. From the icy Alaskan straits, the journey turns to the sun-scorched dust of an Oregon land rush in "False Face," a tense mystery where a young man is framed for a daring theft, forcing a shrewd storekeeper-turned-deputy to dispense his own brand of frontier justice to unravel the deception. In "Over the straits," experience a thrilling sea story set against the dramatic backdrop of Alaska, where survival is a desperate wager against the crushing force of arctic gales. Pride and passion collide in "Stubborn People," a tale of unyielding wills as a man and a woman engage in a fierce battle of pride on neighboring homesteads, a conflict complicated by a case of mistaken identity and the arrival of a dangerous outlaw. The anthology culminates with "The Land Beyond the Mist," a testament to human perseverance on the grueling final leg of the Oregon Trail, where pioneers race against time and each other in a desperate journey to claim a hidden valley, sparking a deadly rivalry that will decide who earns their piece of the promised land. Together, these narratives forge a gripping mosaic of raw perseverance, hard-won frontier justice, the arduous trials of homesteading, and romance found in the face of hardship, spanning the genres of classic Westerns, gripping sea stories, and high-stakes adventure fiction. Step into these richly drawn worlds to witness the moral crossroads and quiet courage of the men and women who didn't just tame the frontier—they defined themselves against it.
