The West

"We were young then, and the West was young, with land broad and bright before us. We knew, whatever the truth was, that every horse could be ridden, every man whipped, every girl loved.We road with the wind then, and sang in the rain, and when we fought it was with the same savage joy as that of the Comanches who opposed us, these fierce, proud warriors who would ride half of thousand miles to fight a battle or raid a wagon train." ~ The End of the Drive, Louis L'Amour
