(The classics \u003ci\u003eHombre\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eValdez is Coming\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003e3:10 to Yuma\u003c\/i\u003e were just a few of his notable works.) With his extraordinary \u003ci\u003eCuba Libre\u003c\/i\u003e, Leonard ingeniously combines all of his many talents and delivers a historical adventure\/caper\/western\/noir like none other. The creator of U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens, star of \u003ci\u003eRaylan\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ePronto\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eRiding the Rap\u003c\/i\u003e, and TV’s \u003ci\u003eJustified\u003c\/i\u003e, spins a gloriously exciting yarn about an American horse wrangler who escapes a date with a Cuban firing squad to join forces with a powerful sugar baron’s lady looking to make waves and score big in and around Spanish-American War-torn Havana in 1898. Everything you love about Leonard’s fiction—and more—is evident in \u003ci\u003eCuba Libre\u003c\/i\u003e. No wonder the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eBook Review\u003c\/i\u003e enthusiastically declared him “a literary genius.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47011189162224,"sku":"9780062184290","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780062184290_p0.jpg?v=1769909925","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780062184290","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
