Reviews"A novel planned on the grandest possible scale...One of those occasions when a writer has aimed high and then summoned every ounce of energy, talent, seriousness, and passion of which he was capable...It is an entirely interesting and impressive book." -- The New York Herald Tribune "A fantasia and myth...a strange and original work of art." -- The New York Times Book Review "A moving, crying pageant with wilderness strengths." --Carl Sandburg "When the book club ended a year ago, I said I would bring it back when I found the book that was moving...and this is a great one. I read it for myself for the first time and then I had some friends read it. And we think it might be the best novel we've ever read!" --Oprah Winfrey, "A novel planned on the grandest possible scale...One of those occasions when a writer has aimed high and then summoned every ounce of energy, talent, seriousness, and passion of which he was capable...It is an entirely interesting and impressive book." - The New York Herald Tribune "A fantasia and myth...a strange and original work of art." - The New York Times Book Review "A moving, crying pageant with wilderness strengths." -Carl Sandburg "When the book club ended a year ago, I said I would bring it back when I found the book that was movingâ€¦and this is a great one.
