NO LAST NAME If he had a last name, no one knew it, and he didn't give it. He was known simply as Chip, and he was only fifteen when he wandered onto a Nevada range and got himself hired to operate a hay press. But Chip wouldn't stay there long. Life—and the sheriff—had other plans for him. Chip had a dangerous trail ahead of him, from a confrontation with a lynch mob, to a trip South of the border to rescue a beautiful woman, to a trek across the Nevada desert with the law in pursuit. Max Brand wrote three short novels about Chip, and they all appear here for the first time in paperback, just as Brand wrote them.
