The Last Gunfighter by William W Johnstone
This collection, written by leading educators in the community leisure field clarifies the nature and significance of a community approach to leisure and recreation policy, practice and provision.
It is divided into two sections: Part 1 examines the nature and development of a community approach to the provision of leisure and recreation services and is mainly theoretical in its approach. Part 2 examines critically the application of community approaches to leisure and recreation provision in specific contexts, drawing upon the 'theoretical' discussions of the earlier part of the book as a means of analysis.
The main issues covered in Community Leisure and Recreation are: *critical analysis of the community practice approach in public policy *locating community leisure in a market economy *exploring theory-practice links in community arts, sport, recreation
and tourism.

Being the all-around assistant, typist, researcher, and fact checker to one of the most popular western authors of all time, J.A. Johnstone learned from the master, Uncle William W. Johnstone. He began tutoring J.A. at an early age. After-school hours were often spent retyping manuscripts or researching his massive American Western History library as well as the more modern wars and conflicts. J.A. worked hard--and learned. Every day with Bill was an adventure story in itself. Bill taught me all he could about the art of storytelling. 'Keep the historical facts accurate, ' he would say. 'Remember the readers, and as your grandfather once told me, I am telling you now: be the best J.A. Johnstone you can be.'
