Who doesn't like a good story? They can be told at night over a fire following a hard day on the trail or on the pages of a newspaper. There is no distinction as long as they ring true. With Cecil G. Emery they did, because he had an authentic voice. Emery didn't care which medium he employed, because he could use both with equal ability. He introduced us to real cowboys, men whose colorful nicknames belied their skills with a horse and rope and their everyday courage. Emery could make us laugh but never at people, always with people. Be prepared for a saddlebag full of compelling, gut-busting yarns as you delve into these stories.…mehr

Autorenporträt
Ron Hamm has enjoyed four careers over a sixty-year working span: as a newspaper and wire service journalist, as a public relations practitioner, as a college teacher working around the globe from Haiti to Argentina, and most recently as an author. Like Cecil Emery, he enjoys telling stories, especially about that most fascinating of all creatures-mankind. The more complex his subject the better he enjoys telling of them. His most recent biography, "Ross Calvin: Interpreter of the American Southwest," certainly fit that bill. Hamm's most challenging project to date has been "Mothers, Lovers and Others: Four Centuries of Notable New Mexico Women and Their Legacies."
