  <default-description>&lt;P&gt; The events of that small-town summer forever alter David Hayden's view of his family: his self-effacing father, a sheriff who never wears his badge; his clear sighted mother; his uncle, a charming war hero and respected doctor; and the Hayden's lively, statuesque Sioux housekeeper, Marie Little Soldier, whose revelations are at the heart of the story. It is a tale of love and courage, of power abused, and of the terrible choice between family loyalty and justice.</default-description>

Larry Watson has also written the novels White Crosses, Orchard, and Justice. Montana 1948 was a bildungsroman about a 12 year old boy David Hayden whose family slowly becomes torn apart.

    <body><![CDATA[I liked this, but didn't love it.  <em>Montana, 1948</em> is well-written, simple and direct.  It seems more like a short story than a novel.  If you're a fast reader, it'll be over before you know it.  My favorite parts were the visual descriptions of a small Montana town sixty years ago.

The narration was authentic (a boy! Who sounds like a boy!) and I loved reading about small town life in the West.

    <body><![CDATA[If theres one thing I like in a book, it is that it's realistic. This was the fact in Larry Watson's book.
