Today, Red Engine Press Author Harold Trisler launched his first book, “Finding the Lost Dalton” at the beautiful US Marshals Museum here in Fort Smith, Arkansas. It was a great event, shared with Harold’s family and many friends.

It is also a quick easy read. And well-known Fort Smith artist, Brett Short’s hand-drawn illustrations are impactful and beautiful.
