A Man Called Trent opens with nester Dick Moffitt lying dead where he was killed by riders. His children, who witnessed the murder, head for safety to a cabin owned by a man called "Trent," who is seeking to escape his reputation as a gunfighter. In Riders of the Dawn, a young gunslinger is changed for the better by a meeting with a beautiful woman. A classic range-war western, it features that powerful, romantic, and compelling vision of the American West for which L'Amour's fiction is known.
