Carl R. Brush

Carl Brush has been writing since he could write, which is quite a long time now. He grew up and lives in Northern California, close to the roots of the people and action of his historical novels. The Maxwell Vendetta, The Second Vendetta, and the soon-to-be released Swindle in Sawtooth Valley which comprise a trilogy of the saga of the Maxwell family of Sawtooth Valley, high in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. Bonita and its sequel, You Can’t Keep Her, are a coming-of-age story of a young girl before and after the gold rush. Finally, there’s The Yellow Rose, co-authored with the late Bob Stewart and set during the 1836 revolution that gave birth to the Republic of Texas.
