Publisher Description
J.L. Doc Pendland was born in Northern Oklahoma,
just a short 36 years after the former Indian Territory
gained statehood. After graduating high school
(nowhere near the honor roll) his work took him to
North Texas, where he still lives with Carolyn, his
wife of 49 years. Fifteen years after retirement, he
began writing The Wagons of Perro Loco and other
short stories. Much of the humor in his stories is readily
supplied by friends and relatives, telling tales of their
ancestors experiences, which he likes to enhance and
incorporate. Doc is currently working on a sequel to
Warner Law.
Customer Reviews
Great characters, great read
I don't often read westerns, but this book is a wonderful exception. It quickly takes hold of the reader with real characters, a strong sense of history, place and people. You care about the Warner family. The women especially are strong and capable of dealing with the often rough world of the West after the Civil War. We have come to expect the male Western heroes, but the Warner women hold their own amidst the often violent world of ranching and mining in Colorado. The characters, although heroic, are believable. The dialogue is well written with a strong sense of humor. Pendland is an excellent writer with authentic stories that will entertain you.
