Synopsis

From one of the greatest Western writers of all time, Lee Nelson, comes Born to Rope. The flinch in a horse's body, the drop of a boy's eyes: This is a rare book, attentive to the simple detail out of which great stories flow. From mustang bands sweeping up the hidden draws and ridges of the high, desolate San Rafael Swell to a horse-trading oasis hidden deep in an auto-wrecking yard on the outskirts of Spanish Fork, Utah, Nelson finds voices, elegant in their terseness, of people you never knew but should know. This is the story of Michael Diamond's coming of age, of finding grace in tragedy.
