Most of what Will Cook wrote were traditional or historical western stories, and these are in that vein. They all take place in Hondo, Texas or the surrounding area. I suspect he had a vision of producing these stories in a collection together after they were published in the magazines. His "Saga of Texas" collection which Leisure published is an example of this integration of stories. But the five in this book are the tales of a community of people who grow and age, fight and survive, all of the difficulties associated with living in the untamed west. Wes Cardigan, Keno Charlie, and Willie Kerry are the predominant characters--rancher, saloon keeper, sheriff--and through these three you live and experience what it was like to live in a small community of people who pretty much all know one another--their likes, dislikes, their fears, their dreams and passions. No one wrote better about the common man except one--Ernest Haycox; but Will Cook is a close second.

Love Will Cook, sorry he didn't live to write more great stories.
