Having a lifelong passion for the old days and often feeling as though he was born in the wrong century, Ron Gassert would have relished living life alongside a campfire with a six gun at his side, and his trusted horse grazing nearby. In spite of his success in sports, particularly football, and his experience throughout his career in banking helping other people, Ron has found peace in writing about the days that he yearned for. Today he resides in the East coast among the hustle and bustle of the Philadelphia area far removed from the times and places he now writes about.
