The characters, places, incidents and situations in this book are imaginary and have no relation to any person, place or actual happening. The west wind came over the Eagles, gathered purity from the evergreen slopes of the mountains, blew across the foothills and league wide fields, and came at length to the stallion with a touch of coolness and enchanting scents of far-off things. It came without warning. Alcatraz turned with the speed of a whiplash curling and drove straight at the place where his master leaned. Marianne's cry of alarm was not needed. Cordova had already started, but even so he barely escaped.

This book had ups and downs. It was very hard to get into at first, that my have been due to my lack of knowledge on horses and the old west. This book however deals with the trust of men and their animals really. As this horse Alcatraz is a horse who had been bread to race escapes his masters home and gets used to freedom. His escape comes at a terrible price though as he becomes known as a murderous beast and Marianne the new ranch owner wants him killed, but Alcatraz is a smart, tough an seems to be a magical horse, able to mystify his hunters that are unable to catch him. Marianne calls in the only man that can catch him Red Jim Perris, and at this point (nearly halfway through the book) is when the story picks up, nothing is straightforward in this book, the scenes with action are written quite well though.

I admit that westerns are a guilty pleasure of mine. A place to go when I don't want to be where I am at the time. Max Brand's style of writing is classic western, hero's and villains, good guys and bad guys, wide open country, you get the point. This particular book requires a bit of horse knowledge to really work. The story is about an "outlaw" horse and it's relationship with man. If you know nothing about horses, or don't care for them a great deal, you may find some of the descriptions tedious or without meaning. On the other hand, horse lovers will find this fascinating. He captures the essence of that 'never really tame' element that is a part of such magnificent animals as well as that strange connection that some people get with certain horses. I highly recommend it and only deduct one star for the specificity of the topic.

I ordered this for my daughter after reading it on my Kindle. I wanted a physical book, and this version exceeded my expectations. It is a beautiful format for a paperback, very high quality finish, larger than normal, and can easily grace a coffee table. It made a great gift. It was much cheaper in the Kindle version, but well worth the price for what I wanted. I may order another for myself, just because it is such a great horse story, besides being a "showpiece".
