Max Brand, one of America's most popular and prolific novelists and author of such enduring works as Destry Rides Again and the Doctor Kildare stories, died on the Italian front in 1944.
Sometimes, you just want to read a western. Max Brand (one of several pen names of Frederick Faust) has a real flair to his stories... his characters are more like knights than cowboys.
Lots of unique settings.. these are definitely not just shootout stories. Still, they are kinda all the same in the end. Not a bad choice if you're in a western sort of mood, though.
