“But that was Tom Mix. He was not made by the West; Tom Mix knew he was made for the West.”
Scott McCrea, Mountain Killer: A Mountain Man Western Adventure

“If Tom Mix had just stepped from Olympus, the boys could not be more impressed.”
Scott McCrea, Savage Mesa: A Western Adventure Novel

“It was a perfect night for a killing.”
Scott McCrea, Deuces Wild: A Western Adventure Novel

“If Tom Mix had just stepped from Olympus, the boys could not be more impressed.”
Scott McCrea, Savage Mesa: A Western Adventure Novel

“Tom Mix was born in Pennsylvania, and when he was ten years old his parents took him to see Buffalo Bill Cody’s Wild West. It changed young Tom forever. He took his mother’s clothesline and taught himself rope tricks. He took scraps from around the house and made his own “cowboy outfit.” And when he was finally old enough, he lit out for the rapidly vanishing West, ready to leave a mark as distinctive as Buffalo Bill or Wyatt Earp before it was gone forever.”
Scott McCrea, Savage Mesa: A Western Adventure Novel

“But that was Tom Mix. He was not made by the West; Tom Mix knew he was made for the West.”
Scott McCrea, Mountain Killer: A Mountain Man Western Adventure

“Tom shook his head. “Let’s assume the unthinkable happens: I completely take leave of my senses and decide to help you get shot by Old Man Hogg. How does that help me?”
Scott McCrea, Hogg Wild: A Western Adventure

“She opened the book on his lap. The pages were densely packed with a neat cursive script; the ink was a pale purple, but each and every i was dotted with a small, red heart. Tom imagined dozens of bottles of colored ink, stored neatly under her (permanently stained) pillow.”
