Publisher Description
It begins in the office of The Hat Creek Cattle Company of the Rio Grande.
It ends as a journey into the heart of every adventurer who ever lived . . .
From the author of The Last Picture Show and Texasville – here is Larry McMurtry's Pulitzer Prize winning masterpiece. A powerful, triumphant portrayal of the American West as it really was.
More than a love story, more than an adventure, Lonesome Dove is an epic: a monumental novel which embraces the spirit of the last defiant wilderness of America.
Legend and fact, heroes and outlaws, whores and ladies, Indians and settlers – Lonesome Dove is the central, enduring American experience dramatically recreated in a magnificent story of heroism and love; of honour, loyalty and betrayal.
Customer Reviews
Unparalleled genius
There’s something of the heart in this book that creates a home in your soul. The landscape and the characters but also the subtext. It’s a brutal read at times and thank God for that! You fall in love with characters and find a great swell of emotion for a climax so subtle and poignant you feel like this novel has forever worked its way into your being.
Read the three book before these, they’re fantastic!
