Beschreibung

No writer captured the excitement, humanity, or adventure of the American West better than Max Brand. And nowhere was Brand’s talent more evident than in this classic short novel. Prolific in many genres he wrote historical novels, detective mysteries, pulp fiction stories and many more. In „The three crosses”, a practical joke gets out of hand and turns an earnest cowboy into a hard-riding yahoo. „The Three Crosses,” an ominous prediction leads a cowpuncher to a showdown with a notorious gunfighter. Experience the West as only Max Brand could write it!
