This entire project was done after Bill Cavalier’s suggestion. Dennis McHaney took over the photobook project from John Bullard, who had initially worked on it. Dennis meticulously compiled ‘The Robert E. Howard Photo Album,’ a remarkable collection that brings together both familiar and previously unseen photographs of Robert E. Howard, along with images of his family and friends.

This comprehensive volume assembles every known photograph of Robert E. Howard, enriched with visuals of his close acquaintances, family members, and various intriguing artifacts. McHaney expertly prepared this collection for publication and contributed an insightful introduction, while Bill Cavalier provided the foreword. A truly captivating photo album for enthusiasts and admirers of Howard’s life and work.
