[The life style of Morgan Kane].

A series of 83 paperbacks describing the dramatic life of Morgan Kane was published in Norway in the period 1966-1982. Morgan Kane was born in 1855 on the Santa Fé trail in the United States. He became one of the fastest gunmen of his time, and as Texas ranger, US Marshal and Pinkerton agent was frequently involved in gunfights and violence. In terms of sales statistics, this series is one of the greatest successes in popular literature ever experienced in Norway. The present manuscript describes and discusses the health-related habits of Morgan Kane; his smoking habits, use of alcohol, gambling, food habits, sexual promiscuity and injury-related patterns of behaviour. In population surveys most of the health-related behaviours that are characteristic of Morgan Kane are found to be moderately, but consistently correlated. It is hypothesized that the direct impacts on the health behaviour of the readers are negligible. Furthermore, it is proposed that the cluster of health compromising behaviours which are typical of Morgan Kane contributes to an image which has considerable appeal.
