Riders of the Silences

The Great West prior to the century's turn abounds in legend. Stories are told of fabled gunmen whose bullets always magically found their mark; of mighty stallions whose tireless gallop rivaled the speed of the wind; of glorious women whose beauty stunned mind and heart. But nowhere in the vast spread of the mountain-desert country is there a greater legend told than the story of Red Pierre and the phantom gunfighter McGurk.

This book was written by Max Brand, universally accepted as one of the giants of western/cowboy literature.
