Having
read Louis L'Amour and Zane Grey I've come to understand that cowboys
were a randy lot. Bookbub has introduced me to Harlequin's Western
Division. The present tome is the 311th in Penguin's
All-Action Western Gunsmith Series which as of 2007 had apparently
sold nine million copies. The hero Clint Adams makes ample use of his
modified Colt but equal use of another gun when he goes for rolls in
the hay. Unlike so many movie Westerns the writer here is realistic
about the accuracy of the metal weapons, plenty of lead flies to
little effect. This paperback was given me by a fellow camper at an
RV Park in Fort Davis, Texas. The chapters are short, the point of
view constantly changing, this is a quick read. Don't expect too
much.
