Piccadilly Publishing / Brian Garfield

BRIAN GARFIELD

The author of more than seventy books, Brian Garfield is one of USA's most prolific writes of thrillers, westerns and other genre fiction. Raised in Arizona, Garfield found success at an early age, publishing his first novel when he was only eighteen. Which, at the time, made him one of the youngest writers of Western novels in print.

A former ranch-hand, he is a student of Western and South-western history, an expert on guns, and a sports car enthusiast. After time in the Army, a few years touring with a jazz band, and a Master's Degree from the University of Arizona, he settled into writing full time.

Garfield is a past president of the Mystery Writers of America and the Western Writers of America, and the only author to have held both offices. Nineteen of his novels have been made into films, including Death Wish (1972), The Last Hard Men (1976) and Hopscotch (1975), for which he wrote the screenplay.

To date, his novels have sold over twenty million copies worldwide. Sadly, Brian passed away in December 2018.Perhaps this is a little-known fact but after author William R. Cox died, in 1990 Garfield finished the novel Cemetery Jones and the Tombstone War. And we are proud at Piccadilly Publishing that we will be producing this as part of the Cemetery Jones series.
