Lonesome Dove

Montana, The American West

This massive novel draws from all western fiction that came before it- a history as long as western expansionism itself. The film adaption is also embedded in the psyches of many of us Westerners with a penchant for nostalgia- or with grandparents who would analyze the accuracy of the saddles used in various scenes and would nod in approval at the feats of horsemanship.
