Description
In The Undying West, Carlene Cross creates a memorable blend of personal and regional history. The voices in her stories include those of her father and his sod-busting friends; the Salish, Kootenai, Nez Perce, and Iroquois Indians; the fossil remains of Montana’s prehistory; and even the wind, the soil, and the prairie grasses. Cross is a storyteller in the tradition of such notable Western writers as William Kittredge, Rick Bass, and Ivan Doig. And like them, she offers a personal testament to the enduring qualities of the West Whether describing the glacial birth of Lake Missoula or land preservation issues, Cross’s observations are those of one seasoned by this unique landscape and its peoples.
