Elmer Kelton, writer of over a dozen popular westerns, was named the best Western Writer of All Time by the Western Writers of America. He has won multiple Golden Spur Awards. The Smiling Country, filled up with pathos and humor, is defined in the last days of the Old West. Hewey Calloway may be pushing 45, but they can still rope and outride most things on four legs. Refusing promotions, he prefers to stay a simple ranch hand. But as he rides the West Texas plains, automobiles are starting to dot the landscape. When Hewey is critically injured by a wild horse, he must admit that his world - and an age - are passing away.
