Product Information
"I was born in the little ex-cowtown of Peaster [Texas]," Robert E. Howard wrote to a friend, and the first story he ever published (in 1922) was a Western sketch. Although he went on to write hundreds of fantasy tales set in Conan's Hyborian kingdoms, Kull's ancient Atlantis, and Solomon Kane's darkest Africa, his heart always remained in the West. In 1929 he began publishing Western tales, but they were unlike any the genre had ever seen--they didn't have happy endings or perfect heroes. They were grimmer, more action packed, even cataclysmically violent. Howard was fascinated by outlaws and gunmen, especially those who "crossed over" to become lawmen, and he knew and interviewed many "old-timers--old law officers, trail drivers, cattlemen, buffalo hunters, and pioneers." The twelve stories collected here show a West stripped down to essentials, where internalized codes of personal honor, loyalty, and courage matter more than laws, progress, or civilization. Also included are four articles, suggestive of his wide-ranging interests--from Billy the Kid to the eerie and unexplained happenings on the frontier. "To me the annals of the land pulse with blood and life," Howard wrote, and his Western stories are full of memorable characters, heart-pounding action, and the distinctive prose generations of fans have come to know, and expect, and appreciate.

Reviews
"The University of Nebraska Press collections are an important contribution to anyone interested in Robert E. Howard, or just how good pulp fiction can be."- Southwest BookViews, "These western stories, written in the 1930s, were unlike anything that had been written in the genre until then. Many of the central characters are merely the best of a bad lot.and the stories were grimmer, more violent and without happy endings.. Aficionados of the genre will undoubtedly welcome the opportunity to revisit these tales."--Mike Ashworth,Historical Novels Review, "It's very nice to have these available once more, and Howard fans should chase them down while they have the chance."--Science Fiction Chronicle, "It's very nice to have these available once more, and Howard fans should chase them down while they have the chance."-Science Fiction Chronicle, "These western stories, written in the 1930s, were unlike anything that had been written in the genre until then.

Book was overpriced, but the only one I could find available. SHIPPING WAS VERY SLOW. The seller told eBay it shipped ~5 days before it actually did. The likely reason being that the seller did not have a copy themselves and instead had to wait for someone to post one on Amazon for less than I paid. The book was purchased there and the Amazon seller shipped it to me. Yes, I got what I wanted and did agree to the price, but I still feel cheated.
