My Uncle reads only paper books. I loaned him one of my readers a couple of years ago, and he got through one book, then stalled on the next one - said he didn't like it. He has had a couple of minor strokes, and doesn't learn things very well. He never has worked with a computer, and every time I've tried to teach him, it fails.

So, the standard thing I do is, log onto his account at the library, find books and put them on hold, and then tell him when they're ready to pick up. Seems to work ok. For the past few years, he's been reading cozy mysteries. So has my Mom, but she's been legally blind, so I've been finding audio books for her. However, I do know my Uncle likes westerns, which I know nothing about. (Well, I *have* heard of Zane Grey ....)

Please recommend some Western authors (and specific books, if it matters.) Bonus points if they are a western-flavor mystery, and double bonus points if they're in the paper collection of the King County Library (kcls.org) (washington state). Old is ok, since he likes to rewatch old movies.

Minus points: Uncle Guy doesn't like excessive violence (hence the cozy mysteries), and detailed forensics are also not wanted (He likes to watch Bones, but couldn't stand the books they are based on - too gruesome)

Thanks for your suggestions.
