   Cal Dia to All   
   In the Urban Cowboy tradition...

   I'm currently reading the most entertaining book   
   I've read in awhile - a "western" - in the best   
   tradition of J. Frank Doby and that "other writer"   
   who gave us such as "Lonesome Dove." This book is   
   by AAron Latham, who authored "Urban Cowboy" and   
   wrote the screen play for the movie. And speaking   
   of titles, this one is "The Cowboy with the Tiffany Gun."   
   If that title doesn't spark the interest of readers   
   of western novels, nothing will!   
      
   I believe the "Tiffany Gun" was an actual fact   
   when Colt commissioned Tiffany to cast several   
   revolvers in solid silver for the Chicago   
   Exhibition or World's Fair.
