Audie Award-winning narrator Will Patton animates this 40-year-old Pulitzer Prize winner, which has become the archetypal Western novel. A contingent of former Texas Rangers, cowboys, and others are driving stolen Mexican cattle north to Montana. The trip is long and arduous. Along the way, they endure ornery cattle; wild rivers; sudden storms; and attacks by bandits, renegade Native Americans, and grizzlies. While the plot is compelling, it's the characters who make this a classic. Patton portrays the men of the cattle drive in ways that are authentic and gripping. Listeners will come to recognize individuals by their manner of speaking and care about them deeply. Patton captures the spirit of this American epic. D.L.G.
