I have many, many books about the Old West, so if you're looking for something you haven't been able to find on the web (is that possible?), feel free to e-mail me, I just might have it. Or if you have any comments/ corrections/questions about this home page, I'd love to hear from you. I'm also very excited about the publication of my first book, "It Happened in Nevada," and my newest book, "Outlaw Tales of Washington." Click either of the pictures below to purchase from Barnes and Noble. Also available at Barnes and Noble are my three latest books in the "Images of America" series published by Arcadia Publishing. The three books cover the cities of Richland, Walla Walla, and Yakima, Washington.
