"Where's the Grub-Pile?"
This is typical because this is the type of language everybody in this book speaks. Well the whole point of this book: to me is to show a life moral.
Louis L'amour has got to the point with the western setting and characters, also the plot and language spoken all falls right together. This is a great western, action, and drama story.
READ THIS!
The Book starts out with a big fight, well I won't spoil it so READ and find out.
The setting of this story has been scattered around the countryside of this Novel. The many settings in this story brought out a lot more characters.
The creation and development of the characters has followed the type of setting that was layed out. Quote " Throw it", Sutton suggested "but if you do you will follow it" unquote. This quote was preceded bya conflict a main part in this story.
The plot of this story is very confusing, it seems that this story has a few to many climaxes it starts out slow with many conversations and climaxes are conflicts man-vs- man and some man-vs-nature. Quote "I shall live, I shall see him die" unquote Man-vs-Nature (Sutton-vs- the desert)!
The language of this story plays a big role. The language sets the whole mood for the western setting. Language spoken English dialect-old style country-western.
In conclusion this is all the info so pick up this book and read it now! Just remember Louis L'amour is a great western series writer.
GOOD BOOK READ IT!
