What People Are Saying About Michael McGarrity’s American West Trilogy

Kirkus

A well-rendered neoclassic tale of the Old West, worthy of a place alongside Lonesome Dove and Sea of Grass.

Kirkus

N. Scott Momaday

McGarrity is an accomplished storyteller, and he writes with clarity, perception, and authenticity.

N. Scott Momaday

Denver Post

Backlands is a coming of age story….An epic novel with a grand sweep of the West.

Denver Post

Douglas Preston

Hard Country…is a ‘Western’ in the sense that Lonesome Dove was a Western. It transcends the genre.

Douglas Preston

Hampton Sides

They don’t make cowboy epics like this anymore.

Robert L. Patten – Institute of English Studies, University of London

McGarrity’s trilogy achieves an encompassing history that is real, heart-stopping and harshly beautiful.

…Hard Country joins the ranks of superior historical novels.

The Santa Fe New Mexican

McGarrity’s well-researched details about life in New Mexico during the Great Depression will appeal to historical fiction fans, and his details about life on the ranch will appeal to readers of fiction set in the West.
