Summary: Possibly the best of the Sackett tales!
Review: Barnabas Sackett has grit and he has the ability to draw to him men of like mind and substance. He is a master of weapons and often has need of his talent. This tale spans both sides of the Atlantic and even places the hero in one situation at the Globe Theatre in England. But, alas, trouble finds him before he is allowed to see young Shakespeare's latest play! I especially love this and the following book in the Sackett series, "To the Far Blue Mountains". For more historical fiction that spans the lands of Europe and Russia in the 12th Century, read "The Walking Drum". It has much the same feel as this and other early Sackett novels.

Review: Hello my name is Michael Toomey and I have just got done reading a book called Sackett's Land. It is another wonderful book written by the great western author of all times LOUIS L'AMOUR. Unlike most of his books the book starts out in England In the Fins. Barnabas Sackett is the Sackett in this book. He is the first Sackett to go to the Americas. It all started out with Barnabas getting in a fight with some on and then all hell breaks loose. The man who he got in a fight with is a powerful man with a lot of influence in England. Barnabas and Jublain are chased all through England. On is trip through England he meats a lot of different people. The question is will Barnabas make it to America and if he does will he make it back or be killed by savages? Well you just got to read it don't you. I would like to thank my English Teacher for giving me the chance do do this book review Thanks Mr. Powell

Summary: The Best of Louis L'Amour
Review: I've always enjoyed reading Louis L'Amour, not as a Western buff, but for his writing skills and his ability to tell a good tell. Sackett's Land is the best of his writings I've found to date. Listening to the audio, it makes you sad to arrive at your destination.

Summary: First of the series
Review: In Sackett's Land, we meet the first ancestor of the future Sackett clan to be immortalized in narrative. Englishman Barnabas Sackett gets in a bit of trouble in his homeland and sets off to the West to make a new home. This is really what L'Amour is all about, not "the West," per se, but "the Frontier." Discovery of new lands and finding a life in the wide open spaces. Sackett sails over the ocean and lands in what will become America. His trials and struggles make for highly interesting reading and L'Amour's sense for detail gives one a true feeling for what it must have been like back then. The most compelling of the series, and fine introduction to the First Family of frontier fiction.

Summary: The story of the founder of the Sackett clan
Review: Louis L'Amour wrote over a hundred westerns. His best-known series are a set of stories about the Sacketts, a family of tough men and women. Many of the books are about the men coming out west and their adventures. They have integrity and stand up for truth and justice. They don't go looking for trouble, but when it comes to them, they don't back down. "Sackett's Land" sets the stage for the rest of the stories. It doesn't take place in the west in the late 1800s, but starts in England as Barnabas Sackett has some troubles and heads for the New World in the 1600s. He has great adventures and does great things. There is lots of fighting, but instead of with guns it is more often with swords. The story starts off quickly with Barnabas finding some old coins and trying to sell them. He encounters the nephew of an earl. The nephew ends up looking foolish; the nephew doesn't like being made a fool of so he decides to kill Barnabas. Barnabas runs, and along the way we are introduced to old England, England in the early 1600s. We meet people of all walks of life. Then the story moves to America and back to England. This is a fun book. It is easy to read and entertaining. If you haven't read it, it is worth reading. If you have read it, do yourself a favor and read it again.
