It''s an American icon: the Western shootist, living by skill, courage and a willingness to spit in death''s eye. Now, the greatest names in Western literature turn this mythical character upside down, inside out and every way but loose. . .

Uncle Jeff and the Gunfighter Western master storyteller Elmer Kelton chronicles a quarrel between a hardscrabble Texas rancher and a killer for hire--with results that stun a town. . . William W. Johnstone and J.A. Johnstone offer Inferno: A Last Gunfighter Story featuring series hero Frank Morgan.
