After forty-plus years as a newspaper reporter and editor, he retired from the Los Angeles Times and wrote western novels in Scottsdale, Arizona. His first was Easter Sunday in which Billy the Kid plays a role. Lipman died in 2003 at age 73. His second western, British Bart, through which Wyatt Earp strolls, is published here posthumously.
