All of Don Coldsmith's books are a great read. The Spanish Bit Saga is very, very interesting. Great stories about several generations of The People. If one enjoys stories about the Plains Indians, these are great books, fun and a quick read.

Honor packs all the action of previous Dana Fuller Ross books in the Wagons West series. He leaves you hanging as to final outcome while finishing off other shorter plotlines. The details were authentic to the time period. Definitely a five star read and can't wait for the next volume in the ...

Wow!

+ Discover the wilderness as you discover a good series
+ VERY GOOD BOOK

If you saw me on the street you wouldn't think of me as a fan of westerns. A 14 year old wearing a Bush t-shirt is not the type of kid that even usually likes to pick up a book. But David Thompson is one of the most captivating writers I have ever had the opportunity to read. My grandfather let me ...

James Alexander Thom

Ballantine Books, 2003

Among the finest historical novels I've read.

+ Good book, but could do without the PC
+ Sign-Talker: A Trip Back in Time

This was one of the most captivating adventures I've read about in a long time. I'm a slow reader, and enjoy savoring the details of a good book, but still surprised myself as I finished this in (for me) record time. J. A. Thom's intensely sensitive portrayal of the conflicted and insightful soul ...
