A classic cowboy novel that keeps it simple. Hondo is a scout for the Army in Indian territory. He's a lone man with a dog. He meets a woman and a boy. He falls in love with the woman. There's some problematic racial issues involving Native Americans. Although I was impressed that Hondo empathized more with the Native people than I would have guessed.

Louis L'Amour doesn't waste any time in "Hondo." This plays like a greatest hits album: Quick Draws, Training montages, Scary Savages (again, it's rather problematic), a beautiful woman, her horrible husband, and stoicism, Stoicism, STOICISM as far as the eye can see!
