| Publisher Description: Donald and his nephews visit an Old West ghost town that was suddenly abandoned when the sheriff vanished while in hot pursuit of a passel of outlaws. Now the remains of the town are haunted -- and it's up to the plucky nephews to solve the mystery of "The Ghost Sheriff of Last Gasp" before it's too late Then, Donald is made stationmaster for a tiny out-of-the-way railroad station, but his first delivery is 10,000 baby turkeys -- and they're all hungry And when the Coast Guard announces it found the wreck of a steamship that sank with Uncle Scrooge's gold on board, the race is on to recover it ahead of Scrooge's rivals. Scrooge hustles Donald and the nephews into his private submarine -- but it's Christmas Eve, and the boys are afraid Santa won't be able to find them to deliver their presents. The boys appeal to Uncle Scrooge, but -- well, his name is Scrooge.Plus lots more stories with Barks favorites, including the wacky inventor Gyro Gearloose, the irritatingly lucky Gladstone Gander, and the ever-glamorous and sensible Daisy Duck. Carl Barks delivers another superb collection of outrageous hijinks, preposterous situations, and all-around cartooning brilliance. Over 200 pages of stories, each meticulously restored and newly colored. Insightful story notes by an international panel of Barks experts. |
