Max Brand is the name by which American author Frederick Faust is best
known and loved. His fiction has been proclaimed vital reading for the
development of the short story in American literature. Three of his
stories appear together in audiobook form:
ALEC THE GREAT
Set in Alaska during the gold rush days of the 1890s, the background of
the bitter enmity that destroyed the once great friendship between Hugh
Massey and Arnie Calmot is explained. (The events preceding the clash of
these two titans for possession of a most extraordinary and powerful dog
are told by young Joe May in Sixteen in Nome.)
RIDING INTO PERIL
Kantwell Irving Dangerfield, commonly known as the Kid, is thrown in
jail on a spurious charge. He makes good his escape and embarks on a
life of dangerous adventure. He meets the enchanting Marianne Justis
when he is hired to track down a mysterious renegade known as The
Phantom. But even should he succeed in his battle with The Phantom, he
will still be left outlawed, a wanted man.
OUTLAWS ALL
Listen to the enlightening story unfold of Bull Hunter, a gentle giant
of a man who sees so deeply into the human soul, encountering and
befriending a mighty wolf dog known as The Ghost.
