I never read the "pulp" westerns much but I remember seeing Louis L'amour, Max Brand, Luke Short and Ray Hogan on the paperback shelves.

Larry McMurtry is a favorite of mine and a step above the standard western fare.

Also check our Dorothy Johnson's short stories (The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, A Man Called Horse), Thomas Berger's Little Big Man, The Ox-bow Incident by Walter van Tilburg Clark, Shane by Jack Schaeffer, and The Way West by A.B. Guthrie.
