About this product

Product Information

The first of Larry McCurtry's Pulitzer Prize-winning Lonesome Dove tetralogy, showcasing McCurtry's talent for breathing new life into the vanished American West through two of the most memorable heroes in contemporary fiction: Augustus McCrae and Woodrow Call. As young Texas Rangers, Augustus McCrae and Woodrow Call ("Gus" and "Call" for short) have much to learn about survival in a land fraught with perils: not only the blazing heat and raging tornadoes, roiling rivers and merciless Indians, but also the deadly whims of soldiers. On their first expeditions--led by incompetent officers and accompanied by the robust, dauntless whore known as the Great Western--they will face death at the hands of the cunning Comanche war chief Buffalo Hump and the silent Apache Gomez. They will be astonished by the Mexican army. And Gus will meet the love of his life.

Reviews
"Gee-haw! Larry McMurtry is back in the yarn-slinging business--with a vengeance. . . . Readers will gobble up Dead Man's Walk --a wild and wooly read--from cover to cover."-- Denver Post, "In Dead Man's Walk , McMurtry uses a simple, wry, immensely accessible storyteller's voice to ponder the same questions that Melville and Conrad did. This is a great book. . . . Larry McMurtry, at his best here, is one of the finest American novelists, ever. We are lucky he's around."--John Milius, Los Angeles Times, " Dead Man's Walk . . . succeeds marvelously . . . resurrecting two brilliantly conceived characters and delivering a rousing tale of the Wild West."--Michael Berry, San Francisco Chronicle, "McMurtry does great characters. Call and McCrae are real, lifelike, believable, and lovable. . . . McMurtry's stories are brimming with passion and page-turning excitement. . . It's good, good stuff."-- Kansas City Star, "McMurtry remains a good storyteller, and he remains a master of dialogue, doing a sort of frontier version of Oscar Wilde."-- Washington Post Book World, " Dead Man's Walk is a very good read . . . [It] will keep you reading [and] make you miss meals." -- Seattle Times

  • A Classic western novel, two thumbs up.

    This was a great book. One of the best western novels I have read. Language was moderate but not overly offensive. Some battle violence that could make some sensitive people squeamish. VERY LONG... had to take a break and read a couple other books before returning to finish this. But was glad I did. recommend to the western reader.

  • One of the best westerns of all time

    This book is a must read for anyone who loves a great, exciting and well written western. Love, love, love this story. The characters are so real and compelling. Highly recommend!

  • Dead Man's Walk by Larry McMurtry

    This book is really entertaining, but I have noticed that within this entire series there are discrepancies in the storyline. Some events differ in this book from the way they were written in the original story "Lonesome Dove". This book is still a must read for any fan of Larry McMurtry, and for someone who couldn't get enough of "Lonesome Dove."
