Synopsis

The book attempts to give homage to a largely forgotten or even unknown chapter in American History; the African-American Law Man in the old west. There are plenty of true stories about these Americans but mostly on obscure web pages and the untouched books in the local library. The Main Character is a fictional collection of several law man that our history has over looked like Bass Reeves from the Oklahoma Territory and before him Willie Kennard from Colorado. As dedicated as Bat Masterson or Wyatt Earp and as quick on the draw as William Butler Hickock but never caught the eye of the dime store novelist; until now.

Biographie de l'auteur

D. W. Smith started his life as an adult in the U.S. Army and stayed for 15 years as a Combat Engineer for the most part with the 82nd Airborne Division. He grew up in the 1960's glued to the television waiting for a John Wayne western to come on Saturday afternoon. He lived on a diet of "Bonanza", "Wanted: Dead or Alive", "Cheyenne", "Have Gun-Will Travel" and "Bat Masterson". He is currently serving as a civilian support contractor to the Department of Defense located in Baghdad, Iraq for 4 year and now in Afghanistan in the volatile Helmand Province. He is now working on a literary vision of his days supporting the modern U.S. Army War Fighter as a civilian living in a war zone.
