Other kids had Batman and Superman for their hero's, Silvertip was mine. Who could help but love him and Parade, Frosty, and Taxi?

Old Hero better than ever

I met Jim Silver when I was fourteen and locked into him right away
A larger than life hero after larger than life legendary villains he lived in my imagination for a long time
But rereading it 60 years later I realized how well the book was written and how good the characterizations are. Brand doesnt go overboard on authenticity but just dukes out a good story that keeps the pages turning and keeps you on the edge of your seat in a place where the good guys are exemplary and the bad ones are, well, villainous.
