Paul Theroux, author of My Other Life, calls it a "...masterpiece in which we clearly see the vivid paradoxes of America's history and Raban on his own personal journey, as one of our wisest and most articulate travellers.
"Because Mr. Raban is both English and a marvelous observer, he sees aspects of the plains invisible to the native-born. At once expansive and intimate, Bad Land is a valuable addition to the literature of the West."
-Ian Frazier, author of Great Plains
"Bad Land is uncommon in its conception and its exquisite perceptiveness...Raban is searching and compassionate, even mirthful, as captivated by his story as an African explorer. And he is at all times eloquent. His writer's zeal is the zeal of a convert to America, but his vision of those who wished to win the West but mostly lost it is unimpaired and true."
-Richard Ford, author of Independence Day
