Western Books & WritingGood authors have been writing about the West since Americans started the western movement. I had a good start on a collection, but I have been taking advantage of the excellent Sierra Vista library, and the little library here in Tombstone, which has "The Arizona Collection" -- a couple of shelves of books about Tombstone and Cochise County. FictionSome of the books that are purported to be fact are actually fiction -- which has generated a lot of writing -- in consternation. I will discuss that below. Right now, I want to talk about the novels which I have been reading lately. It deserves a separate page. Non-Fiction The West of the Imagination ComicsI was pleased to find that Stan Lynde, who created Rick O'Shay and his sidekick Hipshot Percussion, was still alive and kicking! He has a website here: and he has continued to write western fiction, as well as making all of his wonderful cartoons available.

This five-and-a-half pound book supports my conviction that the west is more a
product of memory than "authenticity." It is glorious!
