Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: New. First Edition, First Printing. BRAND NEW & Collectible. First Edition, First Printing. Western fiction. Anthology that brings together works of Eugene Manlove Rhodes (1869 - 1934), nicknamed the "cowboy chronicler" for fidelity to subject, whose work was mostly first published in newspapers and magazines. This collection includes 4 novels (led by Paso por Aqui, a story of a down-on-the-luck cowboy turned bank robber; adapted to film, Four Faces West, 1948, Joel McCrea); 2 novelettes; 4 short stories; a prose narrative; an essay; and, a poem. To the rear is the Epitaph Rhodes wrote for himself and speaks volumes of his personal philosophy: "Now hushed at last the murmur of his mirth/Here he lies quiet in the quiet earth/---When the last trumpet sounds of land and sea/He will arise then, chatting cheerfully/And, blandly interrupting Gabriel/He will go sauntering down the road to hell/He will pause loitering the infernal gate/Advising Satan on affairs of state/Complaining loudy that the roads are bad/and bragging what a jolly grave he had!" His gravestone reads, "Paso por aqui.".
