I recall someone saying how Elmore Leonard isn't old school `cause he built the school. Very true. My favorite Elmore Leonard novels are Tishomingo Blues and Pagan Babies; Rum Punch is my very favorite, thus this review. Also, in addition to reviewing the book, let me plug the audiobook read by Joe Mantegna. The voice of Joe Mantegna is pitch-perfect, his rhythm and inflections capturing each of the characters, male and female, as well as the mood and charged atmosphere of the entire story. Leonard also contributed one chapter (the twelfth of thirteen) to the 1996 Miami Herald parody serial novel Naked Came the Manatee ( ISBN 0-449-00124-5).

Leonard had his first success in 1951 when Argosy published the short story "Trail of the Apaches." [5] :29 During the 1950s and early 1960s, he continued writing Westerns, publishing more than 30 short stories. He wrote his first novel, The Bounty Hunters, in 1953 and followed this with four other novels. His western novels had already begun to show his fondness for culturally diverse outsiders and underdogs. He often developed his characters through dialogue, each defined by means of their speech. For many of his stories he favored Arizona and New Mexico settings. [6] Five of his westerns were turned into major movies before 1972: The Tall T ( Randolph Scott), 3:10 to Yuma ( Glenn Ford), Hombre ( Paul Newman), Valdez Is Coming ( Burt Lancaster), and Joe Kidd ( Clint Eastwood).
