My Friend Tommy Horn

About the Book

This is in no way meant to be an accurate description of Tom Horn’s life. Rather, it was written as a novel about a man named Tom Horn. Some of his deeds are factual, others based on fact, while others were pure products of the author’s imagination. My apologies to the history purists. But I hope they will read this book for its entertainment value.

About the Author

Gossett lived in San Antonio for thirty years and traveled the state of Texas extensively, selling steel products. A lot of his customers were ranchers and were happy to share their stories with him. When attending a gun show in San Antonio he met a retired Texas Ranger, and they became friends. The Ranger also related a lot of his experiences. Stories from both of these sources are incorporated into this book. Though he now lives in Kenosha, Wisconsin he still maintains memberships in the American Legion Alamo Post number 2 and the Texas Library Association.
