This is the "first" of his novels to try and set the record straight of how the west really was. Written in first person it tells the story of Rye Tyler from the age of twelve to early adult hood and the hard lessons of life he learned as he grew. I would rate it readable, but not exceptional.

Rye Tyler, Forged hard quick
Rye and his father headed west for a new life, find instead betrayal, death, revenge and a mentor for Rye after the death of his father by betrayal. Quick to learn the western way, Rye proves to be fearless and almighty quick and accurate with his fathers old pistol. Besieged with enemies he becomes hard and dangerous quickly. Promising his mentor to read "Plutarch" five times, he is set adrift on his own. His wanderings and adventures are what L'Amour was most excellent in depicting. The ending is a fine twist. If you like L'Amour this is one of his best.
