Jubal Sackett: The Sacketts

A Novel

By: Louis L'Amour

Narrated by: John Curless

In Jubal Sackett, the second generation of Louis L’Amour’s great American family pursues a destiny in the wilderness of a sprawling new land.

Jubal Sackett’s urge to explore drove him westward, and when a Natchez priest asks him to undertake a nearly impossible quest, Sackett ventures into the endless grassy plains the Indians call the Far Seeing Lands. He seeks a Natchez exploration party and its leader, Itchakomi. It is she who will rule her people when their aging chief dies, but first she must vanquish her rival, the arrogant warrior Kapata. Sackett’s quest will bring him danger from an implacable enemy . . . and show him a life—and a woman—worth dying for.©1985 Louis L'Amour Enterprises, Inc.; (P)2000 Random House, Inc.

What a great performance from this audio series. We are sad that it has come to an end.

Another homerun from Louis L'Amour!

Excellent writing combined with superb narration pulled me into this story as I joined Jubal Sackett on his amazing journey west As always, L'Amour made me forget where I was and carried me away to another time and place.
