This is a real bumper anthology of over 150,000 words. It isa veritable brick of a book.

THE DIME NOVELIST

Ned Buntline is credited as the man who created the mythic West. He certainly brought Buffalo Bill and Wild Bill Hickock to prominence. A larger than life character, he crammed several lies into one and was a writer, adventurer, soldier, sailor, temperance lecturer and womanizer. The most popular dime  novelist of his day, a man of many paradoxes and a self-aggrandiser of gargantuan proportions, come and meet him in my short biographical novel.

Available from Amazon:

THE PEST HOUSE

Twisted Knee, Ohio, 1866

Nothing could ever damp down the smell of the pest house.

Especially not in the sweltering heat of summer.

It was a strange, stomach-twisting smell that wafted from the two chimneys that belched smoke most days when the place was full of patients. And even when the smoke was dispelled by the wind the odor hung like a miasma around the old two-storied timber building a couple of hundred yards from the edge of the town of Twisted Knee.

But the smell was only a prelude to the evil that took place in the old building that housed the wounded, the diseased, and the hopeless. Though Doctor Cutler had his own faults, murder was not one of them—and that was going to be the death of him…
