Series: Louis L'Amour's Lost Treasures

The classic Western, now newly repackaged as part of Bantam's Louis L'Amour's Lost Treasures program--with never-before-seen material from Louis and his son, Beau L'Amour.

At what point does a group of strangers become a community?

When young Bendigo Shafter

and a ragtag bunch of travelers settle in the rugged Wyoming mountains, they quickly

come to depend on a toughness and wisdom many of them never knew they possessed.

Led by the beautiful and resourceful widow Ruth Macken, the settlers battle harsh

winters, renegade opportunists, and the destructive lure of gold. Through these brutally

demanding experiences, young Bendigo is forged into a man. But when he travels to

New York to reclaim the love of Ninon, his childhood sweetheart, Bendigo is faced

with new challenges. Will hard-edged instincts, honed from years in the mountains,

serve him in the big city? Does Ninon's heart belong to the lights and glamour of

the theater? And if his destiny deems it so, will he be willing to leave the community

he toiled so long and hard to build?

Louis L'Amour's Lost Treasures is a project created to release some of the author's more unconventional manuscripts from the family archives.

In Louis L'Amour'sLostTreasures- Volumes 1 and 2, Beau L'Amour takes the reader on a guided tour through many of the finished and unfinished short stories, novels, and treatments that his father was never able to publish during his lifetime. L'Amour's never-before-seen first novel, No Traveller Returns, faithfully completed for this program, is a voyage into danger and violence on the high seas.

Additionally, many beloved classicsare being rereleased with an exclusive Lost Treasures postscript featuring previously unpublished material, including outlines, plot notes, and alternate drafts. These postscripts tell the story behind the stories that millions of readers have come to know and cherish.
