Typed Letter signed: "Loren D. Estleman", 1 page, 8½x11.
Whitmore Lake, Michigan, 1994 May 16. To Tom Weber, Kearns, Utah. In
full: "Thanks very much for your kind letter of - good, God, can it have
been as far back as March 12? - and the moving story about your father. I lost
my own father in February and have been remembering a good deal since, and know
something of your emotions in putting this fine recollection on paper. I will
treasure it. I'm enclosing a signed copy of GUN MAN for Tristan. [Item not
included.] I flatter myself that I write westerns that won't warp an
eleven-year-old boy, while hoping that the book may kindle some interest in the
western, our sole unique contribution to world literature. Anyway, I hope he
enjoys it. Sincerely". Loren D. Estleman (b. 1952) is a prolific
author of Western and detective fiction. His Westerns feature Marshal Page
Murdock, while his crime stories follow private investigator Amos Walker. His
out of series fiction includes Bloody Season, based on the gunfight at
the OK corral. Estleman has won four Shamus awards for Best Private Eye novel
and short story, and received nominations for several more. Normal mailing
folds. Slightly creased. Otherwise, fine condition.
