Open Range by Lauran Paine

I would recommend this book to anyone of any age (who can read, of course). I have always loved westerns. It doesn't matter if it is in the form of a book or a movie or a TV series, I'm nuts about westerns and Open Range, the book and the movie did not disappoint!!!!!!!!

THE SCREENPLAY IS BETTER

I watched the movie before reading the book and was surprised that the movie storyline is much better than the novel. Actually, the book and movie part company when Wait and Spearman return to town to avenge the death of Mose. From that point, the book takes a completely different turn while also enforcing the huge difference in the Wait character in the movie. The book is okay but it drags from beginning to end. It does not compane with the classic western novels and I imagine anyone reading it because of their interest in the movie will be disappointed.

A gripping tale of human greed and the fight for survival

Very highly recommended for both personal and community library audiobook collections, Open Range by Lauran Paine is the western novel upon which the motion picture starring Robert Duvall and Kevin Costner was based. Open Range tells of conflict between open range men - free grazing cattle owners who have no land yet drive their cattle through the country. Yet ranchers are buying up the land, and one of them is so ruthless as to do murder upon the competing open range men - a crime that cannot go unanswered. A gripping tale of human greed and the fight for survival, Open Range is complete, unabridged, and superbly narrated by Barrett Whitener.
