Review
"The life of William Owens as he tells it appeals by its rugged qualities of mind and narrative prose. In the present instalment, two new sources of interest are added which I particularly value the life of the mingled populations of the southwest and their remarkable stories and songs. The book is a classic, like This Stubborn Soil, because it enshrines a time and place unsurpassably." Jacques Barzun
