But you have put your finger on the beautry of Abbey. He had such a love for the land and its beauty. It drips off the page of Desert Solitaie with his unforgettable descritioon of the flora and fauna and his utter disdain for people that only view it from their car window. This si very Western, we love the land. At the same time, he wnats to be free. And if that means he wants to throw his damn beer can out his window, then he is going to and no lawman or bishop is gong to make him stop. This is also calssically Western. It is what we are. It is what you are. You, IPU, are one of the most western guys here among us, and I mean that as a compliment.

Some of his novels are set in parts of West Texas, but Mexicans could as easily claim him as Texans. So could Arizonans and New Mexicans. Does Dallas gentry claim West Texas?
