For decades, generations of readers have shared their favorite passages of favorite Louis L'Amour novels and short stories: parents with their children, neighbors with their friends, executives with... This description may be from another edition of this product.
as prolific a writer as louis l'amour was, there are all kinds of great quotes, but with as many books and stories as the man has, they can be tough to look up. so it's great that his daughter compiled this collection. i had to only give it four stars for 2 reasons: 1-you'll find no quotes from his single poetry collection or from interviews; 2-when you write as much as l'amour did, you are going to end up repeating yourself. that's understandable, but when editing a collection of quotes, you can leave out quotes that simply say the same thing in just about the same words.
Nearly a 5-star
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
The only thing that prevents this book from being a 5-star book is the limited number of works the quotes were taken from. Many wonderful bits of wisdom were missed in quoting mostly from the Sackett series and some of the "major" novels. This book would be good for everyone whether they read L'Amour or not.
Trail of Memories
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
An outstanding collection of quotes to roam the Western trails with - quotes about the important things in life. Not your usual, lame, hippyfied quote book. Something appropriate for any and all situations. I have given as gifts and every recipient loved it.
