One of the great storytellers of our time, Elmore
Leonard began his career writing Westerns, a genre he
loved. In the pages of pulp magazines that were
still flourishing in the 1950s-¿Lrpfosy^ Dime Western
Magazine^ Za n e GreyJs Western^ and others-------he
perfected his trademark style, a blend of wiry tautness,
sharp characterizations, and jolts of unexpected hum or.
Now, writer and film critic Terrence Rafferty has
gathered the best of Leonard’s Westerns in a single
volume, four classic novels and eight outstanding short
stories, including the tales that inspired such power fill
films as JELombre^ Valdez Is Cominyj^ and 3:10 to Lttma.
In Last Stand at Saber River (1959), Leonard spins a
tight narrative in which a homecoming Confederate
veteran must fight to regain the ranch that has
been stolen from him. Set, like most of Leonard’s
Westerns, against a stark Arizona landscape, the novel
is a masterpiece of unbroken tension, as the hero
confronts a violent new war for all he holds dear.
Chosen as one of the twenty-five greatest Western
novels by the Western Writers of America, and the basis
for a classic film starring Paul Newman, Hombre (1961)
is a stagecoach drama whose hero, a man raised by
Apaches, is treated with contempt by the white settlers
who will ultimately depend on him for their survival.
Valdez Is Gominjy (1970), Leonard’s favorite among
his Westerns, pits Alexican American town constable
Rob Valdez against the entrenched power of frontier
oligarch Prank Tanner. When Valdez is maneuvered by
Tanner into shooting an innocent man, he launches a
one-man war for justice for the man’s widow, which
culminates with a surprising twist.
With Forty Lashes Less One (197:2) Leonard explores
the comic tone that would mark his later books. Set
within the harsh confines of Yuma Territorial Prison,
the novel recounts the unlikely friendship of two
prisoners—-one part Apache, the other African
American----planning a near-impossible escape.
Li Ice the novels, the eight stories included here are
tough, suspenseful, convincing, and beautifully spare in
style. They range from Leonard’s first published pulp
story, “Trail of the Apache” (1951), to one of his last,
the fascinating character study “The Tonto Woman”
(1982). Among the others are the twice-filmed “Three-
Ten to Yuma’5 (1953) and “The Captives” (1955), the
novella that inspired the acclaimed film 17b e T ll T.
