Synopsis

In "Peck's Bad Boy with the Cowboys," George W. Peck continues the misadventures of his notorious character, Young George, thrusting him into the rugged life of the American West. Blending humor with vivid descriptions of cowboy culture and frontier life, Peck utilizes a playful narrative style peppered with wit and social commentary. This book not only entertains but reflects the societal tensions of the late 19th century, as it navigates themes of innocence, rebellion, and the yearning for adventure in an expanding America. Through Young George's escapades, Peck captures both the absurdity and the charm of life under the open sky. George W. Peck, a prominent figure in American literature and humor, gained inspiration for this work from his own experiences as a journalist and playwright. His penchant for comedy and keen observations of society's follies echo throughout his writing. Peck's background in the Midwest and his familiarity with its communities undoubtedly shape his depiction of both the boyhood exploits and the colorful characters encountered in the West, making this narrative rich in authenticity. "Peck's Bad Boy with the Cowboys" is highly recommended for readers seeking a blend of humor and heartwarming storytelling. It appeals to those interested in classic American literature, offering a glimpse into the Indiana boy's spirited journey amid the trials of growing up. Peck's timeless tale remains an engaging read that continues to resonate with audiences today.

Her previous collections include The Old Knowledge (Swan River Press 2010) and Damage (PS Publishing 2016).

Rosalie lives in Coverdale, North Yorkshire, the magnificent landscape of which inspires and sometimes provides the settings for her writing.
    NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOURS: The house next door stood empty for nearly two years and the Carringtons soon grew accustomed to the extra psychic space. They took to holding séances in the back garden at odd times of the day and night and, more prosaically, were
    free to shout to each other from all parts of the house, slam doors whenever they felt like it, and come and go without their every movement being scrutinised.
