Anyone into Westerns?

Wait, what's wrong with NYRB?

I've only read butcher's crossing out of those three and it was way better than I expected it to be

True Grit book >>> True Grit movie

I read Lonesome Dove when I was young, and the idea of driving cattle to Montana has always stuck with me. Montana has that air of old country, wild and American. Now Im older and only think of Ted Turner. Lonesome Dove is a great book though

Nothing, they are great. The reason it looks like shilling is that a full torrent of their work went out in the last few share threads and now people are actually reading/subscribing to them only 79.95 a year!

Very much a sentimentalist novel for a casual audience, but also a very strong narrative and super comfy.

Basically the kind of novel your old uncle would read by the fire.

Also, The Oregon Trail was quite good. My mom had a copy and I read it like 15 times between 10 and 14, probably because of the game.

My soulseek uploads are like 50% NYRB

I'll pick it up next time I have some money, it sounds like something that would be perfect Autumn reading.

Nobody mentions The Beetle Leg by Hawkes is a western, it's fantastic
