Yes, goddog knows his stuff. Jim Harrison has greatness burning in his soul. Stop wasting your time with N.Y. Times bestseller garbage and take a side trip down a forest path with Harrison.

I cant believe that Persevere and I are the only ones to recognize what a treasure Harrison is . Wake up people . long after most of the pablum being published nowadays is forgotten Harrison will still be garnering fresh printings .

Jim Harrison,

He writes in a fashion that pays tribute to real men. He is not PC. and his characters generally enjoy the solutude of wilderness, sometimes there is a good fishing or hunting fragment that I find refreshing. If you havent read Harrison you are missing out. His poems are good also.

Oh, Harrison is a gem. I think he is one of America's greatest writers. I have been in love with his short fiction, poetry, and his latest, Returning to Earth. It was not received all that well, but I thought it was great.

Don't cheat yourself by looking ahead, but I think that the last sentence in the story finally puts the book together. I actually think he wrote that sentence first and then the book before it.

Great book.
