Will be on the look out for more of his stories in my stash of Dime Westerns.Jonathan G.

His novels about a frontier detective (Jefferson Hewitt is the character's name, I think) are pretty good. I'll be on the lookout for more stories under the Carpenter name.James Reasonerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049917964433932612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-70397367074801356332014-08-02T09:14:26.676-05:002014-08-02T09:14:26.676-05:00John Jo Carpenter was a pseudonym used by John Ree...John Jo Carpenter was a pseudonym used by John Reese.

By 1955 they were almost all gone, probably the victim of the TV westerns and the cheaper to produce western paperback novels.<br /><br />But these back issues are still easy to find on ebay and Pulpfest(pulpfest.com) will have plenty of them at cheap prices.Walker Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16089880902426182100noreply@blogger.com
