Lauran Paine Knihy

Kniha je příběhem organizace věrné nacismu a německému vítězství, jež se stala prvořadým zdrojem kvalitních informací, které Hitler a jeho generálové využívali při porobení Evropy. Této organizaci - Abwehru - velel admirál Canaris, muž oddaný porážce nacismu, muž, jenž zosnoval první Hitlerovu porážku na diplomatickém poli a kul další pikle. Lauran Paine ve své knize popisuje události plné intrik navzájem spolupracujících, ale i tvrdě soupeřících špionážních organizací, jejich jedinečné úspěchy, ale i katastrofální nezdary. Zároveň čtenáři poskytuje ojedinělý pohled do nitra vládnoucí nacistické hierarchie a odhaluje její lstivé a kruté metody při prosazování cílů nacistické ideologie všemi dostupnými prostředky.

Jackson Miggs was a loner who wintered under the Ute Peak in his log cabin. He liked people well enough, but didn't care much for crowds. He even tolerated the cowmen like Hyatt Tolman who used the high meadows around Ute Peak to graze his herd-even when the animals cropped the forage too closely and drove the elk and deer into the higher mountains. Miggs once told Frank McCoy that if he looked out a window and saw a building less than two hundred feet away, he felt like things were closing in on him. In return for Jack's friendship, Frank would take Miggs' pelts out in the fall, sell them at Fort Laramie and Cheyenne, then dig up the money he had buried for Jack, and bring it to him in the spring. But this time Frank McCoy was accompanied by beautiful Beverly Shafter and a strange herd of Durham cattle driven by Denver Holt and his crew. They moved right into the grazing land that the Tolman herd had been coming to for years. There was no doubt about it-there was going to be trouble in Ute Peak country.

Boss Spearman knew the end was near for open range men like him, cattlemen who drove their herds through the country to graze and then moved on. Local stockmen were staking claims to grazing areas throughout the West. Spearman had no quarrel with that, but he wasn’t about to let anyone intimidate him or attack his men without putting up a fight. So when Denton Baxter’s threats turned to murder, Spearman knew he had to get justice—any way he could. The basis for the movie Open Range, starring Robert Duvall, Kevin Costner, and Annette Bening!
