Howdy Friends! There ya go. And I think I’ve read all of his books.

I think about this often when I hear folks express themselves. Or watch something in TV. Recently it became available to us to “stream” Paramount+ . (That’s another story)

Robbie and I have watched in its entirety the Yellowstone prequel 1883 – and have started on 1923. Pretty good shows, but the forced vulgarity really, really, really hurts the true value of the stories. Sad.

I hear the show Yellowstone is worse.

Sure do wish Louis L’Amore had written these scripts. ~ Gitty Up, Dutch.

Side note: When I did research for my historical fictions, Tom Named by Horse and From the Banks of Little bear Creek – I found vulgarity was rare indeed at that time. Only the least of people spoke it fluidly – the dregs, worthless and ignorant. And in the stacks of first hand journals, never once did I find a single vulgar word. I find it sad, and cheap, that makers of “modern” historical fictions feel the necessity to insert today’s cheapness and ignorance into their craft. A reflection on them I suppose.
