The Cherokee Trail

A Novel

De: Louis L'Amour

Narrado por: Carrington MacDuffie

A woman ahead of her time, Mary Breydon knew how to get things done. Raised on a Virginia plantation, she learned how to care for livestock, respect her workers, and keep good books. But after her husband is killed, Mary must provide for her young daughter by running a stage coach station on the Cherokee Trail. With the help of an Irish maid and a mysterious stranger, Mary faces challenges that even the men eagerly anticipating her failure would have a difficult time overcoming. After firing the previous station manager with the aid of a bullwhip, she must track down stolen horses, care for a wayward boy, and defend against Indians. If that wasn’t enough, she also has to protect herself from the man who murdered her husband—and is coming for Mary next.

Great story

Kept in suspense, another great story. Really enjoy listening to his books. Love listening to them when we travel.

Love this book!

Just another example of why Louis L’ Amour is my favorite author.
This books one of a few that a woman is the lead character. I love the way he tells and writes his stories! It’s just absolutely amazing!

So so good

Great western starring a strong Southern lady. It is so encouraging and exciting!! Loved it!!!

Vintage L'Amour. I vouch for the accuracy of the setting, having traveled it by car

Laramie and the Overland Trail can still be seen. "Strong women" appeared under the conditions described. It should be noted that Wyoming was the first state to grant the vote to women. The accurate detail of the stage station, and the character of Temple Boone are, again, vintage L"Amour.

Great

Louis L’Amour, always a great story, and Carrington MacDuffie did a wonderful job of narrating

Another great story

If you love reading Louis l’Amour, you will love reading this book. This is another great story with a female as the heroine. I could read Louis l’Amour all day every day for a good summer vacation. This is another good story.

Great story by great author!

True classic performed well. Enthralling story written from a slightly different perspective than most of Louis LAmours work. Truly enjoyed!

My wife's favorite Louis L'Amour's Story

Having Cherokee grandmothers and Irish Grandfathers we always loved L'Amour stories as they were so authentic to the stories we heard about our great grandmothers and great grandfathers on our grandmothers sides of our family . Of course we knew those stories before we ever heard of Louis L'Amour and yet 25 years later when we were first recommended to read his books we did so with many questions in our minds. It wasn't long before we owned every book we could find, and then started buying cassette tapes and then CD's. He is so accurate that we have never had reason to question his work. We still discuss his books at family reunions in East Tennessee with our elders that are in their 80', 90', and over 100, as we are only early 70's we defer to our elders as we were taught as we grew up. We never correct them, even if we think they are wrong! Unlike grand children and our great grandchildren of today who correct you immediately whether they have a clue what they are talking about or not, the GOOD OLE DAYS are over, I am afraid!

engaging, great description
