Angie Boyter asked this question about Lonesome Dove (Lonesome Dove, #1):
This book is beautifully written, but some of it is cryptic to the point of driving me distracted! Many of the characters swear, " 'I god". What does the " 'I " stand for? It can't be "By god", because that would be a "Y". I cannot decipher it.
Brian If you ever watch the mini-series, it sounds a lot like Gus is saying "by god."…moreIf you ever watch the mini-series, it sounds a lot like Gus is saying "by god."(less)
