Book excerpt: In their heyday, pulp westerns were one of America's most popular forms of entertainment. Often selling for less than 50 cents, the paperback books introduced generations to the "exploits" of Billy the Kid and Jesse James, brought to life numerous villains (usually named "Black" something, e.g., Black Bart and Black Pete), and created a West that existed only in the minds of several talented writers. It was only natural that filmmakers would look to the pulps for stories, adapting many of the works for the big screen and shaping the Western film genre. The adaptations of seven of the pulps' best writers--Ernest Haycox, Luke Short, Frank Gruber, Norman A. Fox, Louis L'Amour, Marvin H. Albert, and Clair Huffaker--are analyzed here. Insightful and humorous, the work looks at how the pulp novels and the movie adaptations reflected the times in which they were produced. It examines the cliches that became a part of the story: the rescue of the heroine, the gunfights, the evil banker or rancher ready to steal the land of the good, law-abiding citizens, and the harlot with a heart of gold. A critical examination of how the books were interpreted--or frequently misinterpreted--by filmmakers is included, along with commentary on the actors and directors who put the pulps on screen.

Download or read book King Colt written by Luke Short and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A master storyteller of the American frontier presents a western about a town that could not be tamed—and the vicious things men will do for gold. Picket-Stake Hendry has spent thirty years roaming the Calico Mountains in search of gold. Finally, in a lonely little canyon far from civilization, he strikes the mother lode, and as soon as he gets home to register the claim, he’ll be a millionaire. But before he can make it to Cosmos, a bandit attacks him. Cosmos sheriff Johnny Hendry prefers playing cards to fighting crime, and he’s kept the peace in this rough-and-tumble western town by letting bandits do whatever they want. But when he hears that Pick, his adoptive father, has been murdered, he vows bloody vengeance. For the sake of the old prospector, he will clean up Cosmos—or die where he stands. This incredible story of frontier justice from author Luke Short, winner of a special Western Heritage Trustees Award and the Western Writers of America’s Levi Strauss Golden Saddleman Award, is a classic of the genre.

Book excerpt: I have had the privilege of working with different groups of people that believe or teach from the Bible. Many add other books and claim they are as inspired or even more so than the Bible. I have found that the Key doctrinal issue that most people differ on is "Who is Jesus of Nazareth." I can spend my time trying to debate over a variety of subjects with someone, but as I have discovered if I concentrate on "Who Jesus is and give an accurate description of how the Scriptures speak of Him then other subjects will not matter as much. He is the Key to Scriptural Truth. This book will give you the tools to understanding the "Biblical Jesus of Nazareth." It will be an excellent reference for outreach teams Pastors and Church leaders and anyone who needs the information to the most influential person who has ever lived at their fingertips.
