W. C. Tuttle was one of the most prolific writers of Western fiction for the American pulp magazines of the early twentieth century, specializing in lighthearted cowboy adventure stories featuring recurring heroes like Hashknife Hartley. Law-star for an Outlaw is characteristic of his output — fast-paced, genially plotted, and rooted in the genre conventions that entertained millions of American readers between the wars.
