I am proud to announce that I have self-published my novel "Single Action Army".  This is my debut novel that is based on a sequence of events that took place a few years ago.  I am a firearms dealer here in the Lehigh Valley and one particular deal unraveled into the events described in the book.

SINGLE ACTION ARMY

By Mark J. Schlofer

A dusty Colt revolver. A war-scarred past. A legacy hiding in plain sight.

From the sun-bleached trails of the Old West to the storm-ravaged fields of Normandy, Single Action Army traces the remarkable journey of a few firearms-and the lives they touched across generations. What begins as a symbol of frontier grit becomes a silent witness to an ever-expanding world, family estrangement, and the quiet burdens carried by veterans long after the last shot is fired.

Blending lyrical storytelling with vivid historical detail, Mark J. Schlofer's debut is a haunting, character-driven novel that explores the objects we inherit, the memories they hold, and the histories we don't always speak aloud.

Ideal for readers drawn to intergenerational sagas, small-town Americana, and literary fiction with emotional resonance, Single Action Army will appeal to fans of history, firearms, and Western lore.
