I've read all of Louis L'amour's books, even the non westerns, Will Henry/Clay Fisher, Robert B. Parker, Jeff Shaara and George MacDonald Fraser's "Flashman series.
The "Flashman novels follow a fictional character from "Tom Brown's School Days" through every major campaign in the late 1800s - including Custer's Last Stand. Every historical detail is accurate. The novelty of this series is that Flashman is an abject coward and survives mainly by fleeing but still achieving high public praise.
I have no hesitation recommending any of these authors.
We deal in lead, Friend.
