About the author

Max Brand, the pen name of Frederick Schiller Faust (1892-1944), was a prolific American author known for his works in the Western genre. With his Master of Arts degree from the University of California, Berkeley, Faust engaged in diverse literary careers, adopting various pseudonyms, among which Max Brand became the most famous. Faust's nom de plume was often associated with tales of adventure, heroism, and the Wild West that resonated with early 20th-century American readers. His narrative style incorporated a mix of swift action, complex characters, and poetic imagery that captivated audiences and secured his position as a staple of Western literature. 'Gunman's Reckoning,' one of Brand's enthralling novels, epitomizes his literary craftsmanship and understanding of the Western ethos. The themes of honor, revenge, and the multifaceted nature of heroism are recurrent motifs in his oeuvre. Faust's contribution to the Western genre is not limited to a prolific output of novels but also spans short stories, with hundreds of tales adding to his acclaim. Despite his passing in 1944, while serving as a war correspondent during World War II, Max Brand's legacy endures, influencing subsequent generations of Western writers and the collective imagination of the American frontier (Malone, 2000; Easton, 1995).
