Product Description
This is the third volume of the most famous books ever written in Europe - the Winnetou trilogy. Best-selling since 1893. Old Shatterhand meets Sans-Ear and they team up to save a train from being derailed and robbed by the treacherous Comanche. When they meet Winnetou unexpectedly, they continue their pursuit of the villains into the Sacramento Valley and the famous goldfields of California, but the 'deadly dust' demands a sacrifice. While undertaking a journey into the Rocky Mountains, Old Shatterhand makes the acquaintance of an undercover policeman, Fat Walker. Their trip is cut short when they come upon the burnt-out wreck of another train. Winnetou, Old Shatterhand and their new friend trap the railtroublers, and then embark upon a mercy dash to save what can be saved of Helldorf settlement. However, they are too late-when Winnetou and Old Shatterhand descend into the crater on Hancock Mountain to free the captive settlers, disaster strikes. Then, Old Shatterhand returns to Nugget-tsil... ... Read more

Winnetou Trilogy Titling
Hello Karl May and Winnetou fans

Thank you to Amazon.com for finally listing the Winnetou trilogy paperbacks corectly. Winnetou III - Winnetou Trilogy Volume Three, Karl May's quintessential work.

Note to authenticity of Karl May's texts:
My English-language Karl May books are created from the last published versions that were authorized by Karl May, as available from the public domain. They are authentic, sentence by sentence; and their introductions contain the results of fresh research conducted during the translation process.

My English renditions of Karl May's texts are edited and proofed to the usage and style of international English (with Australian flavour on occasions, since I live in Australia, and just a wee hint of German accent), with particular attention to anachronisms, as well as period-correct flow of dialogue. They incorporate, within the translations, explanatory notes for terms that are specific to culture, era, and technology. Original errors (text-technical or factual) have been corrected, as they should have been by May's own editors. I do not see the point in inventing an error in English for the sole purpose of capturing an error made more than 100 years ago in another language. I do not support stultifying word-for-word translation mirroring German syntax, and have endeavoured to present an inspired narration that, hopefully, presents May's lively and often profound tales in their true spirit.

Sweet mother of God
I've not read Karl May's other work, though I gather the main characters of this book - Kara ben Nemsi and Hadschi Halef Omar - appear in several other novels and are much beloved by people I've never talked to. Nonetheless, this book is just bad in so many ways I couldn't know where to begin.

I almost find myself recommending it, as it has passages of some of the worst prose I have ever seen rendered in the English language. It truly is a thing of wonder. I don't think you really want to try it, though, as this book is tremendously long and slow as well. Given the choice, I would choose to be mugged and beaten rather than read this book again. But, sure, give it a try. ... Read more
