The Lonesome Dove Series

The timeless, bestselling four-part epic that began with the Pulitzer Prize-winning Lonesome Dove takes readers on a journey into the lives of Augustus McCrae and Woodrow Call, two tough-as-nails Texas Rangers in the heyday of the Old West.

Entering into the world of Dead Man’s Walk, readers are introduced to Augustus McCrae and Woodrow Call, known as "Gus" and "Call" respectively, as young Texas Rangers who are faced with the challenges of survival in a dangerous and unpredictable land. Along with the fearless whore, the Great Western, they embark on their first expeditions led by incompetent officers and encounter deadly threats from Comanche war chief Buffalo Hump and the silent Apache Gomez. Amidst these perils, Gus also finds love.

In Comanche Moon, the middle-aged Texas Rangers, August McCrae and Woodrow Call, navigate the complexities of adult life as they pursue the Comanche horse thief Kicking Wolf into Mexico. Capturing the essence of bravery and friendship, they must rescue their captain from the clutches of the ruthless Mexican bandit Ahumado with the help of new allies like Joshua Deets and Famous Shoes.

The narrative shifts to Lonesome Dove, where Gus and Call, retired from the Texas Rangers, embark on a cattle drive to Montana at the behest of their friend Jake Spoon. Motivated by love and the desire for new adventures, they encounter a range of challenges and characters on their journey through the wild country.

In Streets of Laredo, the story follows Woodrow Call's return to Texas as a Ranger tasked with hunting down the dangerous bandit Joey Garza amidst the changing landscape of the west. With old friends and new companions by his side, including Pea Eye Parker and Famous Shoes, the pursuit takes them into the unforgiving terrains of Crow Town and the vast plains of the Texas frontier.

Through these four epic tales, readers are taken on a gripping and unforgettable journey through the Old West, where friendship, love, and courage are tested against the backdrop of a rapidly evolving frontier.
