O'Rourke effectively evokes the sights, sounds and smells of the cowboy way presenting an unvarnished glimpse into this vanished way of life.
Autoren-Porträt von Frank O'Rourke
Frank O'Rourke (1916 -1989) was a prolific, versatile and popular writer of novels, westerns, mysteries, sports fiction and short stories. He wrote more than 60 novels; his first, E Company, based on his life in the wartime Army, was published in 1945. He wrote so quickly, sometimes three books a year, that on the advice of agents he used such pseudonyms as Patrick O'Malley, Frank O'Malley and Kevin Connor. Some of his works were made into movies and television plays, including The Bravados, starring Gregory Peck in 1958, and A Mule for the Marquesa (retitled The Professionals), starring Burt Lancaster in 1966.Molly Gloss is a fourthgeneration Oregonian who lives in Portland. She is the bestselling author of The JumpOff Creek, The Dazzle of Day, Wild Life, The Hearts of Horses and Falling From Horses.
