True Grit by Charles Portis was originally published in 1968 and the MHS Library copy dates back to that time (no movie cover on our copy). Portis' story stands the test of time for fans of the Western genre. A "bad guy" being chased by the "good guy" but accompanied by the fourteen-year-old Maggie who's hired him to hunt down her father's killer. What follows is classic western fare. The current movie is based upon this book rather than the original movie. If you've seen the movie, check out the book.
