Elmore Leonard’s gritty western Hombre is accompanied here by his famous short story of rough justice and survival, Three-Ten to Yuma, both of which have been made into classic films
John Russell, known simply as 'Hombre', is a mysterious loner raised by Apache Indians, on the last wagon out of Sweetmary, Arizona, along with a motley group of travellers including a doctor, a traumatised girl and a brutal stranger. But there are outlaws in the desert – and not everyone will finish the journey alive.
This superb Western, published in 1961, was one of the novels that made Elmore Leonard's reputation as someone who had single-handedly revived the genre. It was made into a film starring Paul Newman.
Also included here is Leonard's celebrated short story 'Three-Ten to Yuma'.

Elmore Leonard (1925—2013) began his long and extraordinary career as a writer of Westerns, most famously a story which was made into the film 3:10 To Yuma. He then became known for his remarkable sequence of crime novels, generally set in Michigan or Florida. A master of funny and threatening dialogue, his influence has been incalculable. Leonard received the Lifetime Achievement Award from PEN US and the Grand Master Award from the Mystery Writers of America.
