Larry McMurty. wrote an epic series around 'Lonesome Dove'. I recommend it.
I would agree strongly with Louis Lamour.
I've made it through a couple Zane Grey novels, and he is the daddy of the western novel, but I don't like his work personally. Some of it could be great, he has lots of titles (As does Lamour), but the few I read I didn't like. Contrived, but not really since I probably think it's contrived because his work planted the western cliches. There was even a long-running tv show called the "Zane Grey Theatre".
