Paul Colt

Author Bio:

Paul Colt’s first book Grasshoppers in Summer is a Western Writers of America Spur Award Finalist in 2009. Paul weaves fast paced stories around historical characters and events. His writing crackles with authenticity in a style that fuses Jeff Shaara’s historical dramatizations with Robert B. Parker’s character driven action. His political insight, military training, research and genuine horse sense bring history to life with characters that walk off the page into the reader’s imagination.

Paul’s life long love of the west began growing up as comfortable on a horse as most kids are on a bicycle. He gets his boots dirty researching a story, whenever possible on horseback. Contact Paul Colt on his personal site to find out more!
