Suggestions and more Trade Reviews Booklist ReviewA cattle drive from Texas to Montana captures the history of the American West in truly epic fashion. The author takes almost every hoary tradition of the nineteenth-century western--i.e., the good-hearted scarlet lady, friendly and unfriendly Indians, strong-backed frontier folk--and gives each one new life and vitality.
