Summary: GOOD BUT SAD!!!!!
Review: Gary McCarthy has written another good book. It is the story of Zach and Carrie Bennett. They are raised as sodbuster kids. Both are determined to get away from that life. Carrie gets taken in by a slick talking Texan. She and Zach travel from Wyoming to Texas to find him. He had promised to marry Carrie. They meet some good and some bad folks along the way. I guess that this is what life was about back then but it sure was tough. I did not like the ending. McCarthy has a way of making you feel for the people he writes about. You almost think you are there with them. A fast moving book, not a shoot out kind, just about family life and how two people and their parents handled it. If you like books about life as it was in the early west you will like this one.
