À propos de cet audio
In this romantic and raw adventure set in the untamed wilderness of Wyoming of 1886, an anonymous college graduate ventures out west where he encounters gun fights, lynching, cattle rustlers, high-stake poker games, Indian attacks, and a brave, honest and imposing cowboy known simply as the Virginian. Presented as the archetypal, ideal hero of the "western" genre (which was novelized for the very first time in this same book), the Virginian, a foreman at Shiloh Ranch, carries a strong sense of justice. This wins him the heart of independent young schoolteacher Molly Stark, and finds his sworn enemy Trampas at the end of a gun.
The novel developed many of the central tropes and themes of the western, including morality, faith and honor, and it presents its formidable, unforgiving landscape in stunning detail.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The Great Western Classic
This novel concerns itself with the character of a virtuous western man over the plot or setting; however, that does not mean that the later two aspects are undeveloped. Nothing could be further from the truth. The plot is filled with events unfolding within a larger theme of a classic romance. The setting is a window into the old west that brings details both surprising and believable, and perhaps not found in other tales.
It is the character of the Virginian that is paramount. A man both wise and capable who must wrestle with practicalities of the frontier while preserving his sense of ethics and honour. The chivalrous western knight wins the fair and noble lady ...
Great narration. Naxos produces some fine audio books.
