Down the Long Hills: A Novel

Louis L'Amour's Lost Treasures

De: Louis L'Amour

Narrado por: Michael Crouch

Everyone was dead. Indian raiders massacred the entire wagon train. Only seven-year-old Hardy Collins and three-year-old Betty Sue Powell, managed to survive. With a knife, a faithful stallion, and the survival lessons his father taught him, Hardy must face the challenges of the open prairie as they head west in search of help. Using ingenuity and common sense, Hardy builds shelters, forages for food, and learns to care for Betty Sue. But their journey through this hostile wilderness is being tracked by even more hostile men. And, as he struggles to keep them alive, Hardy realizes that their survival may depend on his ability to go far beyond what his father had been able to teach him.

This book was well written and well read. It featured a surprise hero and kept my interest from beginning to end.

Excellent! The characters were well-developed and demonstrated a variety of human natures, from the base to the noble. Big Red was amazing.

Kept us at the edge of our seats!

We have listened to most of Louis L’Amour’s books and really enjoyed this one. Very different because of the children being the main characters, All comes together at the end.

Good read

lived it. I could not put it down. I had to finish it. I will definitely hold Your attention.

Great book! Brought tears to my eyes!

This is really a great Louis L’Amour novel about a young boy, his horse, and young girl who survive an Indian attack because they were away from the rest of the wagon trail party. Although I usually don’t like stories about children doing extra ordinary things, Louis L’Amour made the story believable.

It is a heart wrenching survival story, with lots of excitement.

Great narration. Highly recommended!

My opinion

We didn’t dislike anything. We enjoyed very much the author’s writing and knowledge of the “old west.” It is a well written story. The reader did a good job.

this is one of my favorite books of all time

great book I've always loved it I love listening to it in the car on our long drive

Another great Louis Lamour!!

Love listening to these books online. We especially enjoyed the reader/story teller of this book.

My favorite L'Amour

This stand alone book is very different from the typical western focused on a child.

Western stories for ever!

As always perfectly Louis L' Amour, greatest western writer ever! Well read performance. Very pleased‼️😁
