"Perhaps if I had been born in 1900 I would have been able to grasp all of the references to the issues of the day. It turned out properly in the end, for which I'm thankful. I hate it when I struggle through a book and it doesn't end well. "

" I listen to books via audio versions and like Audible.com's version of this book. <br/> <br/>It mixes southwest scenery with New York society of the 20's. I enjoyed very much the writing and portrayal of the scenery and the color of the characters. "

The man whose name is synonymous with Westerns made his first trip west in 1907 at age thirty-five. More than 130 films have been based on his work.
