"Elmer Kelton is truly a Texas legend and a good friend." "Viewed in its entirety, Kelton's three-novel set earns favorable comparisons to such genre-transcending Western-themed works as Larry McMurtry' Lonesome Dove and Stephen Harrigan's magnificent narrative The Gates of the Alamo."
Elmer Kelton, author of more than forty novels, grew up on a ranch near Crane, Texas, and earned a journalism degree from the University of Texas. His first novel, "Hot Iron," was published in 1956. For forty-two years he had a parallel career in agricultural journalism. Among his awards have been seven Spurs from Western Writers of America and four Western Heritage awards from the National Cowboy Hall of Fame. Among his best-known works have been "The Time It Never Rained "and" The Good Old Boys," the latter made into a television film starring Tommy Lee Jones. He served in the infantry in World War II. He and his wife, Ann, a native of Austria, live in San Angelo, Texas. They have three children, four grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.
