Post by Hondo I. Sackett on Jan 25^th, 2008, 5:30pm

well, I'm a western fan through and through! my favorite author is Louis L'Amour. My favorite singular book is "Hondo" with his book series "The Sacketts" followin' close behind. what 'bout the rest of y'all?

I never had much exposure to Westerns until recently. My only exposure you Louis L'Amour was The Walking Drum which I read a few years ago.

However, back in October I was perusing and antique store when I picked up an old 1944 Western, Rusty Guns by Bliss Lomax.

Meanwhile, the dear author of this thread gave me Hondo for Christmas. I'm a chapter and a half away from finishing it.

As far as Westerns go.....I think I'm hooked. ;) In fact, since my supply is rather um....sparse, I'll be poking my way through a bookstore soon.

It is not quite a western but Have you ever read the book series Red River Of The North?
They are about settelers from Norway Settling in America. The author is a Christian and the books are clean and exciting you all should read them they are good. :)

William Johnstone's Mountain Man, Matt Jensen, and First Mountain Man series! ;)

A little gory and the language ain't the best either, but the books are deep and complex.

Westerns don't really appeal to me.
