Book Reviews of Monte Walsh
Book Review: "My heros have always been cowboys."
Summary: 5 Stars
In my opinion, the latter movie version, starring Tom Selleck, is far superior to the original, which starred Lee Marvin.
Whilst trying to purchase that movie for a 70 year old friend of mine, I found this book, and tried it. The character development is far stronger in the book, and I would have to judge it at least twice as good as the movie. These characters remind me of the 'boys' I was around at my grandfather's ranch, before the virus of political correctness laid waste to this once great land.
In the words of two other movies: "We're after men, and I wish to God that I was with them." (The Wild Bunch) "This was a good ol boy- the kind of ol boy who would find a neighbor's calf stuck in a bog, drop a loop over his neck, take him back to the neighbor's, and expect nothing in return except a 'thank you'. They ain't many of these old boys left, and we're going to miss them when they're gone." (Good Old Boys)
"He's still out there, riding fences; you just can't see him from the road." Buy this book- you won't regret it.
