Books by Allen Russell

American Cowboy Author


"If you like my books, please tell your friends, but don't lend 'em your copy. Tell 'em to get their own. I need a new pickup."  

"My Dad was born in Difficult, Tennessee and his nickname is Mule, that should pretty much say it all. I've always been extremely proud to be Louie Allen Russell Jr. Now everyone else will be able to see why."  

Allen Russell

This book is a collection of true-life stories 150 years in the making. The central character throughout the book is Louie A. "Mule" Russell, Allen's Dad. The 30 stories included in the book are about Mule, his family, and friends. These true tall tales are about the life of a country boy growing up in the hills and hollers of Smith County Tennessee. 

Ranging from the Civil War up through the Great Depression, the war-torn countryside of Europe, and a few of the childhood adventures that Allen shared with his dad. You'll find these stories of the Boston-Russell families to be inspiring, enlightning, and a few of them will make you laugh, a lot. As Allen Likes to say, "These tall tales are 100% mostly true."

Early Endorsements For

"Buffalo Grass Rider:The Lonesome Trail" 

“Allen Russell is a fresh breeze off the buffalo grass prairie. Just when I had despaired of finding another Zane Grey or Louis Lamour, along comes Allen Russell with his novel, BUFFALO GRASS RIDER.  As I read I forgot to eat. His novel is well written, fast paced, with credible characters that only the 1800s could have produced, men and women who made the history of the West so delicious.”

Dayton O. Hyde, Hot Springs, South Dakota.

Author of “THE PASTURES OF BEYOND” and many more. Environmentalist, Rancher, Cowboy, and Founder of the Wild Horse Sanctuary.

 

“Allen Russell is a first class hunting guide and a great storyteller. Every writer should understand the people and the country that he writes about. Allen has been there and experienced it. He appreciates sharp wits and the banter that goes on between real cowboys. Allen brings a realistic look to cattle ranching, horses, weapons, and weather in the old west. Buffalo Grass Rider is a fast moving, believable, sometimes funny, sometimes serious, and sometimes deadly story. It covers a lot of ground from Tennessee to Montana, and I enjoyed every mile.”

 Owen Badgett, Ingomar, Montana.      

Author of “Rawhide and Velvet” and others, Poet, Storyteller, Cowboy.

 

"Allen Russell's Buffalo Grass Rider, as in all his books, is a story you can't put down. Through his writing you are there, living the part. The West truly comes alive in the Buffalo Grass Rider."

 Woody Woodruff, Centerville, TN. Cowboy Poet, Humorist, Actor, 2005 Academy of Western Artists Cowboy Poet of the Year
