Freedom's natal day is here. 
Fire the guns and shout for Freedom, 
See the flag above unfurled! 
Hail the stars and stripes forever, 
Dearest flag in all the world.

Greetings!

This month I'm coming to you with the newsletter for July and August. This time of year people are so busy with vacations and spending time with family that we know it's hard to take time to read lots of emails. Especially when you've got the latest Johnstone release in your hands! So we've combined two months in one. If you need to get in touch with us during that time, an email is always welcomed. 
 
Just like you, we've been busy with gardening, mowing, trying to stay cool and dodging the rain showers! Then there is the emails, Facebook, and not to mention we have eight more releases due out between August and December. That's a heap of work for us, but we love it, because it's for you. 
 
Speaking of doing things for you.. Found in our vault of William W. Johnstone articles is a music master of songs Bill began to record many years ago. We're sharing one of those songs with you this month. But keep an eye out for others later on in the year.  I hope you enjoy hearing Bill's voice. 

We'll also be having our annual Labor Day sale beginning August 30th and extending it through Patriot's Day, September 11th. If you've been looking  for those hard to find books or are just missing a few in one of the series, this will be a great time to stop by the website. You can also take this opportunity to pre order the upcoming releases at a discount from us. 
 
Please keep an eye on your elderly neighbors and pets with the extreme temperatures we've been having. 
 
Sending prayers for our troops and the families and friends of the 19 firefighters who perished Sunday in the Arizona wildfire. 
 
 We hope you'll have a happy and safe Independence Day. 
 
 
 Godspeed! 
 
Until next month, keep your powder dry!

Luke Jensen is back in Dead Shot!
Shoot to Kill... or die trying!

Luke Jensen brings a body to Rio Rojo. After all, it's his job, and he's going to get paid. But before he can collect the bounty for killing a killer, two notorious criminals hit the Rio Rojo bank. Now Luke can't get paid unless he catches professional bandit Gunner Kelly and his Apache sidekick Dog Eater.


Unfortunately, a would-be man-hunter is after the money-toting outlaws, too, and young Hobie McCullough is mostly a menace to himself. With a green kid to protect, renegade Mexican soldiers, and a beautiful runaway bride crossing Luke's trail, the blood hunt takes one deadly detour after another. . .

Until Luke ends up smack dab in a nest-of-vipers outlaw hideout. There, he discovers the true identity of Gunner Kelly, what kind of ungodly terror he has planned, and just how dangerous being a bounty hunter can be. . .

 
Sixkiller, U.S. Marshal
The Hour of Death

Sixkiller has come to Ringgold, Wyoming, on the trail of Bart Skillern, a vicious murderer he's been carefully stalking for weeks. But before Sixkiller can strike, Skillern takes a job with the town's duly elected mayor, a politician so corrupt that the only way to get near him is by being even more corrupt.  

 

So Sixkiller takes a job as a hired gun, and sets out to destroy the mayor's gang from inside out. Sixkiller's carefully masked plan is just about to work when he discovers that, except for one beautiful, crusading newspaper woman, there's not a decent soul in Ringgold to take over from the power-crazed mayor.  

 

Now Sixkiller can't leave Ringgold behind until he tears it apart - pitting one bad man against the other and praying that the Lord and a Colt will somehow sort them out.


 
August Release! Defiance of Eagles


Boyd Ackerman is no ordinary criminal. Trained by the U.S. Army, commanding his band of killers with military efficiency, Ackerman has outsmarted and outfought every lawman who has tried to stop him.  

But he's never faced a MacCallister before...

 

Falcon MacCallister wasn't looking for a fight. Then Ackerman's Raiders kill his niece's husband--and take the young woman hostage. Falcon and his brothers ride into action. With three transplanted sons of the Scottish Highlands attacking an army of steely-eyed, battle-hardened killers, a small Montana town will bear witness to the bloodiest and most hellish gun battle in the history of the frontier...
