Troy Andrew Smith

Mail Ordered (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Although two of the women characters depicted in this story were based loosely on real women, this is a work of fiction and not to be regarded as a history book, nor a journal of their lives. It is hoped that readers can get a feeling for some of the struggles and dangers those Mail Ordered Brides, as well as all the early women pioneers, were up against. Mail Ordered Brides were a necessary commodity in a land where women were few and far between. Especially since making a living was hard and time consuming. Enough so, a lot of men just didn't have time to go 'courting'. Thus, the Mail Ordered Bride filled a niche in the 'Wild West'.

Autorenporträt

Troy Andrew Smith was born on July 13th, 1952 in the small rural town of Nowata, Oklahoma. He was raised on a ten acre place just outside of town and grew up dreaming of being a cowboy like his Dad. Although, their place was small, it was directly across the road from a large ranch and just down the road from another big spread. By the time Troy was 15 he was a regular hand during branding and shipping. He had no idea of ever being in a movie. As an adult, Troy worked as a ranch hand, machinist, carpenter, guide, dude wrangler, and Country Western singer. He also wrote a weekly column for the Nowata newspaper and had several of his Cowboy poems published in various publications. While attending film school at Montana State University, Troy supplemented his income with movie jobs in the summers and started writing novels and screenplays. He has ridden horses or driven teams in numerous movies and TV shows, including three seasons on HBO's series DEADWOOD. At this time Troy is concentrating his efforts on his skills as a Screenwriter, Author and Actor.
