This is the definitive critical anthology on the writings of Texan Robert Howard, the originator of Sword & Sorcery fantasy and also of Conan The Barbarian. The essays survey Howard's work in fantasy, westerns, poetry and supernatural horror tales.
The proposed book uses the Star Trek television/movie and Star Wars movie series to explain key international relations (IR) concepts and theories.
