Good story. Excellent reader.

Anther good cattle drive tale!


(4.5 stars)

Another good cowboy cattle driving tale by Andy Adams. This one gets a half star reduction only because of the complex legalities of this particular tale (I'm still not sure if I understand the finer points!), but the author's knowledge of cattle, drives, and the west remains superb throughout. As always, this particular Librivox volunteer reader's voice and pacing are perfect for a western story.


(5 stars)

good story well written and well read, I look forward to hearing more of this authors work. for he has a very good prospective of the cowboy life style and the reactions to the cattles actions and was a enjoyable way to listen some time away.. ENJOY
