The Life and Times of Warner Glenn : A Glimpse into the American West. Douglas, Arizona : Ed Ashurst Publishing, 2017. 323p ; 26 cm. This is a story about John Wayne, Gene Autry, Gary Cooper and Tommy Lee Jones . . . well not really. It is a story about the cowboy hero these mere actors attempt to portray on the silver screen, as in "I'm not a cowboy hero but I plan one on tv." It is a biography of one whose story will seem larger than life. Remember the name Warner Glenn. Ed Ashurst leaves no stone unturned. This history book is a slice of the pioneer west for the last two centuries. In that sense it is dense with genealogy and the settling of the Arizona Territory since 1816. If you think you are related to Warner, you'll probably find your name in the pages somewhere! I, for example, celebrate the same birthday! Rising from the ever-present historical backdrop in this book, is a stampede of action-filled stories that never stops. Almost every chapter is a movie in itself! The further we read, the deeper we fall into the lure of wanting more. Sometimes it seems almost unbelievable. We get led through a world crawling with Fire, Murder, Sweat, Fear, Flood, Attacks, Lions, Dogs, Snakes, Fiddles, Jaguars, the Border, Bears, Prehistoric Calligraphy, Courage, Caves, Drugs, Drought, Dehydration, Bulls and Bad Horses. 20170920.
