Riders of the Dawn

Matt Sabre is a young and experienced gunfighter, but when Billy Curtin goes for his gun, Matt has no choice but to draw and fire. To his surprise, the dying man gives him $5,000 and begs him to take the money to his wife. A combination of guilt, regret, and wanting to do the right thing leads Sabre to make that ride in "Ride, You Tonto Raiders."

In "Riders of the Dawn," a young gunslinger is changed for the better by a meeting a beautiful woman. A classic range-war Western, this novel features that powerful, romantic, strangely compelling vision of the American West for which L'Amour's fiction is known.
