Without a doubt the GREATEST teller of Western Tales ever to put pen to paper.
Flint
Fallon
Hondo
The Sacketts
And all the rest, I started reading them when I was about 10 or 11 years old and never quit.

I thought “LAST OF THE BREED” was pretty damn good for having been set in the 20th century.
Never heard of a sequel, pity the poor Russkies.

Self-publishing will address this problem.

Lack of sales will also.

I’d add Liberty Island Magazine to the list of conservative publications.

No one ever went broke feeding women’s vanity.

I came to the understanding that science fiction, as I had been reading, would be forever tainted the day that I met “the aspiring author Orson Scott Card” at a writer’s convention in Portland, Oregon in the 1990’s.

I considered Last of the Breed an excellent book, also.

No sequel because L’Amour died too soon.
