"Howdy, folks! Welcome if you're new here or returning, ready to take a ride through the wild world of Western films? Today, we’re talking about the man with no name who redefined the genre: Clint Eastwood. From a mysterious gunslinger to a legendary director, Eastwood didn’t just star in Westerns - he reshaped them. So, grab your hat, saddle up, and let’s explore how Clint Eastwood became the ultimate Western icon."
Of all Clint Eastwood's Westerns, The Outlaw Josey Wales holds a special place in my heart because I associate it with my late father, who introduced the movie to me when I was a youngling.
I'll get round to reviewing it properly in due course, but I'm delighted to have recently picked up Forrest Carter's two Josey Wales novels, courtesy of eBay.
There were a bevvy of different printings (some with the two books in a single volume), but I knew what I was looking for: the two tales (Gone To Texas aka The Outlaw Josey Wales and The Vengeance Trail of Josey Wales) as separate paperbacks with the cinematic art (as shown above).
