Nick Senger at One Catholic Life is hosting a Wild Wild West Reading Challenge for 2081 and I am joining in. I have been planning to read some westerns for years and this is the year when it is going to happen.
... a western is defined as “a book set in the American Old West frontier and typically set from the late eighteenth to the late nineteenth century.” That definition can be stretched a bit to include books like Eowyn Ivey’s To the Bright Edge of the World about the Alaskan frontier, or even books like Sackett’s Land, the first of Louis L’Amour’s western series about the Sackett family, even though it begins in 17th century England.The challenge started on January 1, 2018, and concludes on December 31. Any other information about the challenge can be found HERE.
I am signing up for the lowest level:
Lasso and Chaps = Read 2 westerns.
These are the books I have on hand to choose from:
Outrage At Blanco by Bill Crider
The Bounty Hunters by Elmore Leonard
Flaming Canyon by Walker A. Tompkins
West Of Texas Law by Walker A. Tompkins
Roy Rogers And The Ghost Of Mystery Rancho by Walker A. Tompkins
Trouble Rides Tall by Harry Whittington
