McMurtry's epic adventures of Woodrow Call and Gus McCrae continues as the aging pair set out to collect and drive a cattle herd to Montana, meeting and occasioally creating adventure along the way. McMurtry is overly dependent on coincidence -- his vision of the Great American Plains seems to be that they are like the neighborhood pub -- if you hang around long enough, everyone you know will show up -- but the sweep of the story almost makes you forgive him that fictional convenience.
