Kid Wolf of Texas

by Paul S. Powers

Overview

Kid Wolf of Texas is a book that lovers of the old-style westerns will love! He is an absolute and pure good guy; a "soldier of misfortune." Traveling through the west on his trusty horse Blizzard, Kid is on the look-out for unfortunate victims, while singing his favorite tunes about the Rio Grande. He saves lost wagon trains; recovers rustled cattle; outsmarts the lily-livered land grubbers; saves the stage coach from robbery and Indian attacks; and brings in the bad guys for the law. What more could a body want?

About the Author

Paul S. Powers (1905-1971) was a writer of Western pulp fiction during the 1920s through the 1940s. He also wrote stories of several other genres, including horror, detective, noir, and even romance. Several of his very first stories were published in "Weird Tales" in 1925-26. He was also the author of the novel "Doc Dillahay," published by Macmillan Company in 1949. Powers was a rare book collector and known expert on Western Americana.

From 1928 to 1943, Powers pounded out 12,000 word blood and thunder novelettes every week for "Wild West Weekly," one of America's most popular pulp Western magazines. Many of the stories were published under his pseudonym, Ward M. Stevens, but occasionally stories were published under his own name. Many of the stories featured his wildly popular characters Sonny Tabor, Kid Wolf, Johnny Forty-Five, Freckles Malone, and King Kolt. He wrote about 440 stories for "Wild West Weekly."
