Reviews

"Utilizing a classic western plot--a journey across rough land under perilous conditions--and a mismatched pair of protagonists who'll remind many readers of those in The African Queen , Swarthout tells a sturdy if by now familiar tale," commented PW on this "melancholy " novel by the author of The Shootist.
