Max Brand (Frederick Schiller Faust) is one of the greatest early Western writers who has been labeled „one of the top three Western novelists of all time” and „Speedy’s Bargain” is one of 9 „Speedy” stories that have seen print in various collections. „Speedy’s Bargain” features „Speedy,” Brand’s atypical western man of action who carries no gun and relies on his wits and psychological insights to stop crooks in their tracks. In it, an outlaw holds a family at gunpoint, threatening their deaths unless Speedy free his nephew from jail. Living by his wits rather than by his gun, Speedy is one of those characters that deserve to live once again in fiction. Highly recommended, especially for those who love Western genre!
