Read The Westerners Storyline:

"Mr. White had \'arrived.\' He had arrived in the full flush of a glorious, strong young manhood, and the story he had to tell was a tale of life as it is lived by honest, loving, lovable, hard-working, hard-drinking, and hard-riding men - the men who carry civilization, a gun, and a flask into the unknown lands. Strong as such men are, strong is this story of their lives. It is an open, frank, piece of work; a picture such as Zola might have made had he been born an American. That a book of so much vitality....If you have not read the story you should, and at once. Read it for its beautiful use of beautiful words, beautiful in their simplicity and their strength; for its skillful construction, for the characters, genuine men and women of the frontier; human beings whose souls are open to the light of the sun above the Hills; whose emotions are primitive, and being so, are worn upon their sleeves, not left behind in a satin box upon the dressing table." -The Michigan Alumnus "One of the best books of the kind we have lately come across." - Outlook "Stewart Edward White...has gained a wide reputation for his stirring and vivid tales of American life in the West." -The Rotarian
