From the rear cover
CRITICAL ACCLAIM FOR MARCUS GALLOWAY'S SNAKE OIL: EASY PICKIN'S, Book One "When 'Professor' Henry Whiteoak, purveyor of homemade remedies, sees men trying to rob a courier, he pulls his wagon over and runs them off at gunpoint. The snake-oil salesman is a familiar western trope, but Whiteoak is unique. The push-pull between his cynicism as a practiced charlatan, and his inability to ignore people in need, adds intelligence and empathy to this action-filled, sometimes violent series." Booklist "I thoroughly enjoyed this book from start to finish . . . Its protagonist is part-hero, part-scoundrel Professor Henry Whiteoak. Whiteoak is a major part of what makes this book so much fun." Historical Novel Society
