Reviews
On Apr 9 2020, a reader said:
This is a complex novel. The ensemble of characters--a mixture of westerners, native Americans, and easterners coming for health reasons--and the principles' stories are laid bare for the reader to either sympathize with, or assuredly hate; there is little or no middle ground. This book deserves to be read and more highly respected.
