My Dogs and Guns

"e;Blue and Some Other Dogs"e; is a brilliant memoir about Graves' Basque-Australian sheep dog. "e;Guns of a Lifetime"e; tells the stories related to the guns this octogenarian Texan has owned, beginning with a "e;rusted and cylinderless"e; revolver. "e;So here are the stories,"e; Graves writes. "e;They are not all nice tales in contemporary terms. Political correctness, as presently defined, may be perpetrated here and there, though I hope no parts will seem like the maunderings of a Deep South redneck. But if they do, the hell with it. I am too old to fret about such matters."e; Its delightful writing from a treasure of a writer.
