Waltzing With Tumbleweeds: A Collection of Western Short Stories Paperback – April 16, 2019
Purchase options and add-ons
From the windswept plains and dusty streets of Dodge City, to the rocky arroyos of Arizona's Verde Valley, to the early summer green of the Little Bighorn Valley, these small gems give the reader a taste of all that made up the West. Saddle up with the inimitable Dusty Richards as he spins his yarns of lawmen, cowboys, Indians, miners, and the women that loved them.
Ride along with his characters as they facedown a pack of hungry wolves. Cheer them on as they find love in a Dakota blizzard. Laugh uproariously as a stray tomcat nearly destroys a town. Mourn with the girl who loved notorious outlaw Billy the Kid. Bargain along with a trader as he gets more than he bargained for in a Crow village. Be very quiet as you follow a young cowboy in his hopeless attempt to rescue a white captive from the Apache.
Grip the pages until your knuckles are white with tension, weep for love lost and love found, and laugh until you cry. This volume also contains the previously unpublished novella, Out of a Job and Not Earning a Dime. Most of all, though, sit back and relax as Dusty Richards, the master storyteller, brings to life the West as it really was.

About the Author
Dennis Doty is a former U.S. Marine NCO as well as a bareback bronc rider from the old RCA circuit in the southwest. Growing up in southern California, he learned to love the cowboy life from his paternal grandfather who got his start as a cowboy on John Chisum's old Jingle Bob ranch near Roswell, New Mexico. He has been writing fiction since 2004. His work has appeared in magazines and anthologies including Saddlebag Dispatches, Storyland Literary Review and Cheapjack Pulp. He is Vice-President and Deputy Publishing Director of Oghma Creative Media and Managing Editor of Saddlebag Dispatches magazine. Primarily a writer of westerns, his interests aren't confined to a single genre. He has written military fiction, women's fiction, fantasy and romance. Dennis now makes his home in Appalachia with his wife, Kathy, and their beagle, Peanut. Together, they have ten children, all of whom have managed to avoid careers in both crime and politics. He spends his days writing, editing, and yelling at kids to get off his lawn.

- Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2023I read to residents in Assisted Living and Skilled Nursing in the senior community I live in. I do private readings which take around an hour each session. There is one resident who particularly enjoys Westerns. I ran across this book and it's just perfect for him. The timing of the stories is right on. We're both enjoying it!
