Louis L'Amour's life was as exciting as the fiction he wrote.
And in this exclusive audio program America's favorite storyteller
talks about his early experiences as a miner searching for gold
and silver in the hard rock mines of the old West and gives his
firsthand observations of the hard and dangerous life of a miner
and the special breed of men who risked their lives daily to dig
the earth for riches--and too often found their own graves. These
collections are vividly re-created in Richard Crenna's performance
of Dead End Drift, one of L'Amour's famous Yondering tales. This
harrowing story of a real-life mine cave-in is L'Amour's fictionalized
account of the last hours of four trapped miners and their courageous
struggle to save themselves from certain death.
Dead End Drift provides a unique look at Louis L'Amour, the man
and his work.
