| In The Undying West, Carlene Cross creates a memorable blend of personal and regional history. The voices in her stories include those of her father and his "sod-busting" friends; the Salish, Kootenai, Nez Perce, and Iroquois Indians; the fossil remains of Montana's prehistory; and even the wind, the soil, and the prairie grasses. Cross is a storyteller in the tradition of such notable Western writers as William Kittredge, Rick Bass, and Ivan Doig. And like them, she offers a personal testament to the enduring qualities of the West.
Includes 50 black and white photographs and maps
