Unabridged Audiobook
this book was absolutely HORRIBLE...horrible..horrible. it's so true to life I found it hard to put down. if anybody likes...LOVES..tales that ring 100% true this has to fit the bill. I always thought "Lonesome Dove" was the great Western American tale but it doesn't hold a candle to this fine narrative about early pioneers forging a life from a hard unforgiving land. Very strong female protagonists through several generations. I'm 77 and have lived a hard life suffering the loss of two children and three wives..numerous miscarriages but places in this story brought tears to my old eyes. Read by a great reader and an excellent read. in a month or two I plan to listen to it again and pick up some of the bits and pieces missed. I can't believe the research that the author put into creating this riveting story so true to life. My thanks to the author and all the folks involved in bringing this work to my ears. I rate it an easy 10 out of possible 10. I was never able to see the next twist. EXCELLENT IN ALL ASPECTS.
