: PrawfsThe Best Books in the New York Times Book Review...
By Dan Markel, Ethan Leib, Rick Garnett, Matt Bodie, Paul Horwitz , Steve Vladeck, and Orly Lobel
...often aren't among the books reviewed that week. They're the self- or vanity-press-published books advertised in the Review. Some of these books, it should be said, go on to enjoy larger fame and have been picked up by major presses for substantial advances. Still, the descriptions of these books are often priceless. My favorite this week is the one for a book titled The Adventures of Marshal Gabby Tucker, Volume One: Family Ties in the West, which can be found at this site:
This exciting Western follows the Tucker family as they search for their kidnapped son, Lefty. The large family joins forces with local native Americans to find the group of lost boys. Full of humor and adventure, you'll find yourself glued to the last page.
