Gunsights and Forty Lashes Less One by Elmore Leonard

Gunsights and Forty Lashes Less One by Elmore Leonard

From New York Times Bestselling Author Elmore Leonard come two of his early, beloved westerns-now collected in one volume

GUNSIGHTS

Together, Brendan Early and Dana Moon have tracked down Apaches and gunned down scalp hunters to become Arizona legends. But now they find themselves fierce adversaries in what newspapers are calling The Rincon Mountain War. Brendan and a gang of mining company gun thugs are dead set on running Dana and the "People of the Mountain" from their land. Which of these former friends-turned-foes will triumph in the end?

FORTY LASHES LESS ONE

The hell called Yuma Territorial Prison can destroy the soul of any man. It's worse for those whose damning crime is the color of their skin. The law says Chiricahua Apache Raymond San Carlos and former black soldier Harold Jackson are murderers, and they'll stay behind bars until they're dead and rotting. But even in the worst place on Earth, there's hope. Now for two detested inmates--first enemies, then allies by necessity--their chance at salvation waits at the end of a mad, violent contest . . . on a bloody trail that winds toward Arizona's five most dangerous men.

Leonard, Elmore: - Elmore Leonard wrote forty-five novels and nearly as many western and crime short stories across his highly successful career that spanned more than six decades. Some of his bestsellers include Road Dogs, Up in Honey's Room, The Hot Kid, Mr. Paradise, Tishomingo Blues, and the critically acclaimed collection of short stories Fire in the Hole. Many of his books have been made into movies, including Get Shorty, Out of Sight, and Rum Punch, which became Quentin Tarantino's Jackie Brown. Justified, the hit series from FX, is based on Leonard's character Raylan Givens, who appears in Riding the Rap, Pronto, Raylan and the short story Fire in the Hole. He was a recipient of the National Book Foundation's Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, the Lifetime Achievement Award from PEN USA, and the Grand Master Award of the Mystery Writers of America. He was known to many as the 'Dickens of Detroit' and was a long-time resident of the Detroit area.
