One of the most prolific writers of all time, he wrote more than 500 novels and nearly 15 million words under the pen name of Max Brand and seventeen others. Alongside Zane Grey, the western section of any bookstore is usually packed with Max Brand titles. The Jackson Trail is another outstanding western that demands your attention. In it, Jesse Jackson is riding where the law feared to go... Packed with enough action and interesting twists to please even the most die-hard fans of the genre, the novel also addresses a wide range of important themes with insight and sensitivity. Max Brand leads the reader on a very authentic tale of the old west the way it was. Written in the thirties, but still fresh and enjoyable today.
