Industry reviews
"...[I]t is a satisfactory foothill, with the grand old mountain in view....McMurtry has a fine time with youthful damnfoolishness, and so does the reader. The young Rangers are randy and daft, and ...coltish around women...."
Time - John Skow (09/04/1995)

"When it comes to contriving tests of manhood, Mr. McMurtry knows no master....['Dead Man's Walk'] is a stranger and a more ambitious book than its predecessor, ruthless in its disposition of characters, sparse and vivid in its creation of the inhuman landscapes of New Mexico and the plains....Mr. McMurtry's two novels, freestanding and yet linked, should surely earn an award of some kind, for carrying forward to their ultimate limit the themes and leather-tough atmospherics on which novels and films of the Texas frontier depend."
New York Times Book Review - Thomas Flanagan (09/10/1995)

"McMurtry has left himself plenty of room for sequels to the prequel; if that is his plan, I wish him well, because this book was great fun to read. It is now some 20 years since Larry McMurtry advised other Texas writers to stop writing about the lost Texas of legend and instead to chronicle the new, urban Texas. McMurtry set the example, in such novels as 'Terms of Endearment,' but the, wily devil, he doubled back on us and wrote the most sweeping and romantic western adventure of all. I, for one, am happy to cede the historical territory to him, and to allow McMurtry to bring Gus and Woodrow back to life as often as he likes."
Chicago Tribune Books - Jay Brandon (09/10/1995)

"This is a great book...Larry McMurtry, at his best here, is one of the finest American novelists, ever. "
Goddard 

"Succeeds marvelously...resurrecting two brilliantly conceived characters and delivering a rousing tale of the Wild West."
Goddard 

"Readers who are looking for pure adventure will gobble up "Dead Man's Walk"--a wild and wooly read --from cover to cover.
Goddard
