Elmer Kelton was a wonderful gentleman and writer from the beginning to the end. Even while writing all those books, he always took time to champion new authors.

No one spun a dusty turn of phrase quite like Kelton. No doubt Louis, Zane, and Elmer are sharing some pearly suds somewhere.

Even Booklist, with as many novels as we review, couldn’t keep up with Mr. Kelton’s prolificacy, but of the 15 novels we reviewed since 1991, 3 received stars. For further reading, here’s a link to our review of Way of the Coyote, in which Wes Lukowsky writes: “No one does it better than Kelton.”
