DeFlave: I don't want anyone to get the impression I am an Elmer Keith fan - I'm not!
I am though, a dyed in the wool Jack O'Connor aficianado.
My ambivalence to Elmer Keith is not anything personal or a dislike of his writings but I am just not a "big bore" fan.
Pistols or Rifles.
I only got to talk to him once and he was not a large person by any stretch of the imagination - his books are now worth a batch of money though.
Jack O'Connors son (Bradford) was just through Dillon here a couple of days ago and stopped in for a very friendly chat at our local gunshop.
Bradford in the past has relayed to me some stories about his father that would stun/shock Jack's average fan.
To each their own I say's.
Hold into the wind
