Bill, I greatly enjoy his writing, and am quite familiar with the dialect he uses. I just overall enjoy Rutledge's writings more. Some of Nash's stories I actually like better, but some of his writing isn't as interesting, while there isn't anything of Rutledges I have read that I didn't enjoy. Any of Nash's stories involving the squire and such I find highly enjoyable. For some reason, probably the Avatar he uses on this forum, there is a duck hunting story in Mark Right on a lake in the dead of winter that I can't help but shake the image of Destry from my mind when reading it.
