praise
“Best western historical novel” –Western Writers of America
"...a gritty, occasionally funny and finally affecting story" --Publishers Weekly
"...a quiet, eloquent, probing novel infinitely more satisfying than the most gripping of the hoofbeats-and-hot-lead treatments of the man-to-myth Sam Bass" --Dale Walker, El Paso Times
