I'm proud to say that a distant cousin of mine wrote the book that the movie is based on, i.e. The Hallelujah Train. I believe the title of the book was changed after the success of the movie as I have copies with the two titles being different.
Bill Gulick also wrote Bend of the Snake of which the movie Bend of the River starring James Stewart.
A few others were also made into movies. He is best known for his westerns, historical based fictional westerns and for book on the Pacific Northwest.
He has Kansas roots and Oklahoma roots. A budding baseball career was ended when he contracted polio and thus he began a writing career that has spanned more than 6 decades.
He wrote many many magazine short stories in addition to novels. From Lineman magazine to law enforcement magazines to Saturday Evening Post.
I like to think of him as a farm boy turned successful. Last I knew he was still writing and is now about age 94. Lives in Walla Walla, WA.
