"Eickhoff presents a poetic, yet violent fiction account of Wild Bill Hickok"--Elmer Kelton on "And Not to Yield"
"Abrilliant, mysterious, and in the end poetic capture of that romantic American figure, the Western gunfighter of old. Wild Bill Hickok comes fully alive in these pages---and dies with equal force."--David Nevin, "New York Times" bestselling author of "Meriwether" on "And Not to Yield"
"In this majestic epic, James Butler Hickok, better known as Wild Bill, is seen through a kaleidoscope of mythologies. He is God's Avenging Angel, Odysseus, and Sir Lancelot, Charlemagne's perfect knight, the hero of gaudy dime novels, and an American legend. In his Prince Albert coat and red sash he is also the great pacifier of hungry women from Elizabeth Custer to Guinevere, as well as a killer extraordinaire who offs barmen with aplomb. This is a great psychedelic novel, and Randy Eickhoff is a top banana."--Richard S. Wheeler, Spur Award-winning author of The Exile on And Not to Yield
"An epic novel of an epic life . . . Robust, rich and vigorous, And Not to Yield is a thorough pleasure."---Ralph Peters," New York Times" bestselling author of "The Devil's Garden" on "And Not to Yield"
