“Gunman’s Debt,” a Western tale by Robert E. Howard, offers a vivid glimpse into the raw and tumultuous world of the Old West. Set in the small prairie town of San Juan, Kansas, the story unfolds with the arrival of Texan John Kirby, who is quickly ensnared in a web of deceit and long-standing feuds. Unbeknownst to Kirby, the town is under the clandestine control of Captain Blanton and his chief henchman, Jim Garfield, an old enemy from Kirby’s past along the Rio Grande.

Robert E. Howard wrote poetry. He wrote it first in life, last in life, and throughout life. Howard completed around 300 stories for commercial sale and worked on 300 more. But he wrote over 700 poems, virtually none of them meant for commercial markets. His first publication outside of school was his poem “The Sea”, published in a local paper. His famous “All fled, all done…” couplet, borrowed from Viola Garvin, was allegedly the last words he typed. And in between, poetry gushed from him.
This second volume of a three-volume set collects the rest of all of Howard’s known poetry.
