Publisher Description
The acclaimed sequel to Larry McMurtry’s Pulitzer Prize–winning classic Lonesome Dove, and the culmination of the legendary western saga, follows the further adventures of these beloved characters as they reckon with their past choices and uncertain futures in the rapidly changing American West.
Captain Woodrow Call, August McCrae's old partner, is now a bounty hunter hired to track down a brutal young Mexican bandit. Riding with Call are an Eastern city slicker, a witless deputy, and one of the last members of the Hat Creek outfit, Pea Eye Parker, now married to Lorena—once Gus McCrae's sweetheart. This long chase leads them across the last wild stretches of the West into a hellhole known as Crow Town and, finally, into the vast, relentless plains of the Texas frontier.

Customer Reviews
Useless information
There were a lot of pages filled with unnecessary stories in this book. It seemed that the author was just trying to add pages.
Overall, it was a good book.
Adios!
Good Yarn. Character Cast overdone and scattered a bit. Still, a fitting picture of the Passing of the Old West of the Pecos.
Thanks Larry!
Streets of Laredo
This last book in the series continues the stories of the Texas Rangers and those in their worlds. Each story touches against another, in so many subtle moods. The writing seems to flow easily from the pages, I am only sorry that I have finished the series and can not look forward to discovering new adventures.
