Caxton Press
Bill Gulick
Bill Gulick’s writing career, spanning more than six decades, is truly remarkable. He has written twenty-seven novels, eight nonfiction books and several plays. He was a regular contributor to The Saturday Evening Post and other national magazines. His stories have become major motion pictures starring screen legends Burt Lancaster and Jimmy Stewart.
A list of his literary friends reads like a Whose Who of Western Writing — Elmer Kelton, A. B. Guthrie, Max Evans, Don Coldsmith, Norman Fox, Tommy Thompson, William McCleod Raine, Nelson Nye and his mentor, Walter Stanley Vestal Campbell. Gulick is considered one of the foremost authorities on Pacific Northwest history.
In Sixty-Four Years as a Writer, Gulick details the journey from his Depression era Oklahoma roots to his position as one of the nation’s premier Western authors.
