Elmer Kelton's The Unlikely Lawman (eBook, ePUB)

A Hewey Calloway Adventure

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Hewey Calloway, one of the best-loved cowboys in all of Western fiction, returns in Elmer Kelton's The Unlikely Lawman, as novel of his middling years, as he looks for work-but not too much work-in 1904 West Texas.

Hewey Calloway is heading north to Colorado, on a horse drive for an old friend, Alvin Lawdermilk, when he gets word that one of his hired hands is planning to rob him. After the plot is foiled, the fugitive horsehand is on the run and leaving bodies in his wake.

Deputized to help bring the criminal to justice, Hewey is bestowed with a weight of responsibility that he's long avoided. Never known for his skill-or lack thereof-with a pistol, he can only pray that he and retired Texas Ranger Hanley Baker will be enough to put an end to this trail of dastardly deeds.

Steve Kelton will transport you to an Old West full of duplicity, gunfights, and the often-unforgiving hardships of frontier life.

Autorenporträt

STEVE KELTON (1951-2022) spent 42 years as an editor for the San Angelo-based Livestock Weekly. A West Texas native, he was the son of the late Western novelist and livestock journalist Elmer Kelton. During his youth, Steve spent as much time as possible on the McElroy Ranch in West Texas's Crane and Upton counties. Managed by his grandfather, Buck Kelton, the McElroy was where Elmer and his brothers grew up. Aside from journalism, Steve was the author of the nonfiction books, Renderbrook, A Century Under The Spade Brand, a history of the Renderbrook Spade ranch in West Texas; and Grassroots Legacy, a commissioned history of the Texas Farm Bureau's first 50 years.
