LibriVox recording of The Virginian, by Owen Wister. Read by Michelle Harris.
Ostensibly a love story, the novel really revolves around a highly mythologized version of the Johnson County War in 1890's Wyoming ... The novel takes the side of the large ranchers, and depicts the lynchings as frontier justice, meted out by the protagonist, who is a member of a natural aristocracy among men.

Subject: Brilliant
This is a brilliant rendition of the classic novel about life and ranching in 19th century big country, but it's the narration that really brings out the best of the book. The reading is brilliant, and I will look for more from this reader.
