UPK mourns the passing of our beloved author Jim Hoy, who published four books with us (see links below). Jim’s knowledge of Kansas—its history, its people, and its landscapes—was boundless, and his love for the state was infectious and inspiring. We also extend our condolences to Jim's family for the sudden passing of his son Josh. We recognize the legacy of both Jim and Josh’s work, including their good stewardship of the stories, cowboy culture, and lands of Kansas.
