WAY OF A GAUCHO

"First Edition"

Basis for the Jacques Tourneur film starring Gene Tierney, Rory Calhoun, and Richard Boone.


Argentine legend, Poncho Colorado, christened Goyo, was told to have championed the poor and terrorized the gringos with his band of daring outlaws.
 This is the story of his good and bad deeds, his one true 'aristocratic' love (played by Gene Tierney), his fall to despair, and how he was found by Manuela and lived later years in honor.

One small minor scratch to the upper front cover, else fine in smooth burgundy cloth with silver embossed star to the front cover, and silver embossed titles to the spine; in a near fine dust jacket with tiny nicks and creases to the upper spine edge; original $3.00 price still intact to the front inner flap.

Wrap-around dust jacket art, and endpaper illustrations and maps by Vance Locke.

Quite presentable--especially in this lovely illustrated dust jacket.
