"For sheer adventure L'Amour is in top form."--Kirkus Reviews
Here is the kind of authentically detailed epic novel that has become
Louis L'Amour's hallmark. It is the compelling story of U.S. Air Force
Major Joe Mack, a man born out of time. When his experimental aircraft
is forced down in Russia and he escapes a Soviet prison camp, he must
call upon the ancient skills of his Indian forebears to survive the vast
Siberian wilderness. Only one route lies open to Mack: the path of his
ancestors, overland to the Bering Strait and across the sea to America.
But in pursuit is a legendary tracker, the Yakut native Alekhin, who
knows every square foot of the icy frontier--and who knows that to trap
his quarry he must think like a Sioux.
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's Lost Treasures: Volumes 1, 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. These exciting
publications will be followed by Louis L'Amour's Lost Treasures: Volume
2.
Additionally, many beloved classics will be 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exclusive Lost Treasures postscript featuring previously unpublished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.
