Great Western Authentic Flavor and Accuracy
If you enjoy authentic flavor in your Western fiction, you'll like Holt County. The author has woven in real historical facts that are true to the locale and era of Holt County, Nebraska in the 1880’s and mixed it seamlessly with gritty Western fiction.
I'm a Holt County resident whose family history in the county can be traced back to approximately 1877. I'm in the Holt County Historical Society and can say that I was delighted to read this collection of stories and that I really appreciate the effort it required to do all the research that this book took to make it feel so real.

RP has penned a Kansas western action adventure that comes in two short stories and three novels. The title of the book, Holt County, is about a Deputy Sheriff that is trying to do his job that at times even though difficult. Between his job and personnel relationships his life is precarious at times, but he is able to sustain both. This is an excellent read for the genre.....DEHS

Excellent western
Westerns are one of my two favorite genre’s, the other being books on the Roman Legions. This book was well written, the characters fully developed and the story kept my attention. If you like westerns and you’re looking for a for a good weekend read, you should consider getting this book.
