"The Strange Case of Cavendish" by Randall Parrish was dubbed "An Erotic Western Thriller," upon its first release thanks to its bravery in approaching more salacious topics. Pretty girls, Native Americans, travels along the Mexican border, and even an imposter Mr. Cavendish are just a few of the elements in this book that have made it a classic western since it was released. Stella Donovan is also responsible for being an early quick-witted western heroine in the genre.
