Synopsis
The first volume in McCarthy's Border Trilogy, ALL THE PRETTY HORSES begins with the death of John Grady Cole's grandfather. John Grady, age 16, has lived with his grandfather for much of his life, and when the old man dies and the family home--a ranch in Texas--is sold, John Grady and his old friend Lacey Rawlins take off for Mexico, looking for a place in a world that seems increasingly hostile. Almost immediately, they encounter trouble, and the trip is studded with death, loss, violence, stolen horses, and thwarted love. By the time John Grady returns home--alone--he is irrevocably changed.

The first volume of A Border Trilogy (which will be published in successive years), All the Pretty Horses is a grand love story, an education in responsibility, Esquire.

Industry reviews
"His descriptive style is elaborate and elevated, but also used effectively to frame realistic dialogue, for which his ear is deadly accurate."
New York Times Book Review - Madison Smartt Bell (05/17/1992)

"A taut, poetic evocation of the remote back country of South Texas and Northern Mexico, strongly imagined and beautifully rendered by a very fine writer--one of our best--who deserves far more renown."
Peter Matthiessen 

"'All the Pretty Horses' is a superb book, touching on matters that are never allowed access to serious (literary) novels. The prose is both raw and transcendentally lyric, and should gather Cormac McCarthy the attention he has long deserved."
Jim Harrison 

"The novel's hero, as in the five that came before, is the English language, or perhaps I should say the American language. In either case, the book itself is truly heroic and an unabating pleasure to read."
Shelby Foote
