We Sacketts were a mountain folk who ran long on boy children and gun shooting, but not many of us were traveled men.
May contain spoilers
Somebody likely to have no more sense than to falling love with a Tennessee boy with nothing but his two hands and a racing mule.

LANDO
Sackett got to Texas with a well-oiled hogleg, a racing mule that didn't look worth its salt and a damn good idea of the whereabouts of buried gold across the border in Mexico.  In Mexico he had had luck.  His party had to run for it, and when Lando stood rear guard they pulled out and left him.  Six years in a Mexican prison put muscles in his arms, fire in his heart and pure recklessness in his head.  When he caught up with the men who betrayed him, it made no difference that he didn't have a gun.

LOUIS
LAMOUR

The SACKETS


They are the unforgettable pioneer family created by master storyteller Louis L'Amour to bring to vivid life the spirit and adventure of the American frontier.  The Sacketts, men and women who challenged the untamed wilderness with their dreams and their courage.  From generation to generation they pushed ever westward with a restless, wandering urge, a kinship with the free, wild places and a fierce independence.  The Sacketts always stood tall and, true to their strong family pride, they would unite to take on any and all challenges, no matter how overwhelming the odds.  Each Sackett novel is a complete, exciting historical adv.enture, and read as a group, Louis L'Amour's The Sacketts form an epic story of the building of our mighty nation, a saga cherished by millions of readers around the world for more than a quarter century.

In Mexico he had bad luck.  His party had to run for it, and when Lando stood rearguard they pulled out and left him.

Six years in a Mexican prison put muscles in his arms, fire in his heart and pure recklessness in his head.  When he caught up with the men who betrayed him it didn't matter that he had no gun!

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
