Other editions of book The Untamed

"Whistling Dan" Barry's eyes blaze yellow when a fight threatens or danger's near. They paralyze his foes. A good shot and courageous to match, Dan is a super hero of the Wild West. And he enjoyed great longevity! Max Brand's first western, THE UNTAMED featured Tom Mix in its 1919 cinematic rollout, the first of three. Tyrone Power starred in the 1955 version, the most recent. How about Tom Cruise in an update?

Even to a high-flying bird this was a country to be passed over quickly. It was burned and brown, littered with fragments of rock, whether vast or small, as if the refuse were tossed here after the making of the world. A passing shower drenched the bald knobs of a range of granite hills and the slant morning sun set the wet rocks aflame with light. In a short time the hills lost their halo and resumed their brown. The moisture evaporated. The sun rose higher and looked sternly across the desert as if he searched for any remaining life which still struggled for existence under his burning course. And he found life. Hardy cattle moved singly or in small groups and browsed on the withered bunch grass. Summer scorched them, winter humped their backs with cold and arched up their bellies with famine, but they were a breed schooled through generations for this fight against nature. In this junk-shop of the world, rattlesnakes were rulers of the soil. Overhead the buzzards, ominous black specks pendant against the white-hot sky, ruled the air. It seemed impossible that human beings could live in this rock- wilderness. If so, they must be to other men what the lean, hardy cattle of the hills are to the corn-fed stabled beeves of the States.
