rating: 4 of 5 stars4 of 5 stars4 of 5 stars4 of 5 stars4 of 5 stars
recommended for: anyone who grew up in a rural are, anyone who loves their father
status: Read in July, 2007

Doig grew up the son of a widowed rancher/cowboy who lived a hard but loving life. This memoir of his childhood is extraordinary for its evocative sense of a place, an era, and the natural world of rural Montana, and his honest and loving portraits of his father, grandmother, and town.
