Vintage L'Amour that keeps on pleasing, great read! - By: , 16 Jul 1999 
I started with Louis L'Amour when I was 13. I'm 50 now & he still gives me immense satisfaction. His books, alll of them, grace my smalll home library & they are somewhat dog-eared from the many times I've re-read them. "Beyond" is a smalll compilation of short stories that are pure enterntainment & L'Amour at his best. He takes you to places you will probably never visit, introduces you to people & circumstances of intensity & alll in the comfort of your favorite reading chair. I look forward to the promised release of several new works.
A mold Breaker - By: , 06 Jul 1999 This as a gift to a guy that reads EXCLUSIVELY WESTERNS because the giver thought that's what it was by the name of the writer. But danged if I didn't find these stories more of a treat than some westerns I'd read lately. Some of these writers do spread out to a dukes mixture don't they? Somebody said they thought Steven King or one of these other goresmiths was writing a western..? No doubt set at Tombstone or somewhere a lot of corpses can rezarrect...
Another treasure from L'Amour - By: , 24 Jun 1999 I agree with the reviewers who have praised BEYOND THE GREAT SNOW MOUNTAINS. It is classic Louis L'Amour. I also agree with the reviewer who loved THE TRIUMPH AND THE GLORY, a stunning new novel rich in the tradition of L'Amour at his best. He is loved so much because he is passionate about his writing & proclaims timeless themes of love, taking responsibility for oneself, & simple respect for others.
Classic L'Amour - By: , 15 Jun 1999 
Beyond the Great Snow Mountains is great reading, an enjoyable journey through a selection of tales. I received the book, along with the recent WWII novel, "The Triumph & the Glory", as birthday gifts, & greatly enjoyed them both. Each displays the style & grace of timeless writing, & themes that are so much more worthwhile than the hyped trash so many publishers offer us today.
Nice collection of short stories - By: , 17 May 1999 This book contains about a dozen adventure, western, & sports (boxing) stories. It is fairly typical L'Amour, but I have always been impressed with his short stories & this one was no exception. He even has a few mysteries the collection that were also fun to read -- a bit of a change of pace.
Worthy of picking up.
