(St. Paul), Graywolf Press, (1987). The second book by one of the preeminent writers of the contemporary American West. A collection of autobiographical essays that was only published in softcover. Inscribed by the author: "For Steve [Krauzer] -- [drawing of a heart with an arrow through it]/ Well, love & money, Bill K." Between 1982 and 1986, Kittredge and Krauzer wrote nine novels together under the pseudonym "Owen Rountree." The series of Westerns focused on an outlaw named Cord and his female partner, Chi, in the latter half of the 19th century. The books were highly praised but only modestly successful commercially. Rubbing to folds; else fine in wrappers. An excellent association copy between two writers who were both friends and collaborators over a number of years. [#027936] $250

All books are first printings of first editions or first American editions unless otherwise noted.
