Review:
" Extraordinary...One thinks of such American originals as John McPhee,
Wallace Stegner, Edward Hoagland, Peter Matthiessen, and Evan S. Connell." -- "The Washington Post Book World"
" This is a brillant, funny, and altogether perfect book, soaked in research and then aired out on the open plains to evaporate the excess, leaving this modern masterpiece. It makes me want to get in a truck and drive straight out to North Dakota and look at the prairie." -- Garrison Keillor
" History written with passion and delight... Frazier is a great storyteller." -- "Newsweek"
