Edition DescriptionReprint
SynopsisJosey Wales was the most wanted man in Texas. His wife and child had been lost to pre-civil War destruction and, like Jesse James and other young farmers, he joined the guerrilla soldiers of Missouri--men with no cause but survival and no purpose but revenge. Josey Wales and his Cherokee friend, Lone Watie, set out for the West through the dangerous Camanchero territory. Hiding by day, traveling by night, they are joined by an Indian woman named Little Moonlight, and rescue an old woman and her granddaughter from their besieged wagon. The five of them travel toward Texas and win through brash and honest violence, a chance for a new way of life., Josey Wales was the most wanted man in Texas. His wife and child had been lost to pre-civil War destruction and, like Jesse James and other young farmers, he joined the guerrilla soldiers of Missouri-men with no cause but survival and no purpose but revenge.

    A great Western Novel a must read

    I'm always one to raise an eye at a lot of Western/ adventure Novels as the writing is often times lack luster or dull. From the moment I opened the book I've had difficulty putting it down. I've even missed my train stop (more than once) as I just couldn't put it down. Riding through Missouri with Josey, the big Roan and a pair of 44's has been a real blast of a tale. Truly enjoyable from cover to cover.
