Summary: L'Amour wrote more than just westerns
Comment: Louis L'Amour is most well known for his westerns, but he also wrote in other genres. "Last of the Breed" is one of L'Amour's fiction novels that takes place in modern times. First published in 1986, the story takes place sometime in the 1980's.
The story is about the escape of Major Joe Makatozi (also called Joe Mack) and his plight crossing Siberia. Shot down by the Russians while testing an experimental aircraft for the Air Force, Makatozi is thought to have useful information. After breaking out of a Siberian prison, he has to find warmer clothing, food, and weapons. Because Joe Mack is part Sioux, he was raised to be able to survive on the land if he had to. Makatozi befriends a few people and treks across Siberia, hoping to reach Alaska, with the Soviet Military close behind.
"Last of the Breed" is considerably longer than most of Louis L'Amour's westerns. Although longer, I often found myself reading more than I intended to in one sitting. This book shows L'Amour is not limited to only westerns, but excels in other genres as well.

Summary: Last Of The Breed: Continuation of an Era!
Comment: Last Of The Breed is one of L'Amour's best works, following in a long line of classics. It is an "Edge-Of-The-Seat" book that I've enjoyed reading over and over again. Situated in Russia, U.S. Air Force Major Joseph Makatozi ("Joe Mack") is flying one of many U.S. experimental aircraft with valuable data to the Russian authorities. This particular aircraft can stand extremely cold tempratures - ideal for Siberia. So, he is shot down, and this is a tale of his escape. I've read it over and over again, and it is always good to the last sentence.
