Thanks for the link to that article, Sonny. Interesting.
There is a lot of discussion of hardboiled westerns in the Rara Avis archives, and I've read a number of great books from mining that source. The westerns of Loren D. Estleman have particularly been favorites.
Another great source is this article by our own Bill Crider, which gave me a whole new list of books to track down. Highly recommended.
