Descripción Softcover. Condición: New. Reprint. RemarkableA novel about a young man reaching for manhood after the killing of his father and about the invention and selling of Col. Samuel Colts revolving pistol, and the way it changed the West. Those who love True Grit will love this (Michael Korda, author of Hero).One does not travel the path to vengeance aloneTwelve-year-old Thomas Walker has never left New York City. His father, a traveling salesman hoping to earn money by selling Samuel Colts recent invention, the Improved Revolving Gun, takes young Thomas with him on the road. But even the worlds first true revolver cannot save them from danger, and what starts as an adventure soon turns into a nightmare.Thomas soon finds himself alone, and must rely on his own wits, courage, and determination, as well as a wooden replica of the Colt revolver, to protect himself. Luckily, an encounter with a surly ex-ranger, Henry Stands, leads to an improbable partnership, and the two set out in perilous pursuit of vengeance. That is, if they can escape the thieves who lurk around each trail, river, and road-and who have already stolen so much from Thomas.In the spirit of The Sisters Brothers and True Grit, this spare, elegant, and emotionally resonant story conveys-through a boys eyes-a beautiful father-son story, as well as the fascinating history of how the birth of the revolver changed the course of violence in America. Road to Reckoning offers a window into the history of the American West and the heart of a boy yearning for love. Nº de ref. del artículo: DADAX1476731640
