Filled with adventurous writing, sharp scrutiny, meticulous and
audacious use of language, North of the Platte, South of the
Niobrara: A Little Further into the Nebraska Sand Hills winds
around its subjects the way the rivers and creeks of the Great
Plains twist around humps of prairie grass, ranches and rock
outcroppings. The ambitious goal of author Bryan Jones was to
create a fresh understanding of the Nebraska Sand Hills from the
inside. Surely he has done that, and more. He reflects with almost
unbearable poignancy on war and its consequences, and with fierce
advocacy on two beloved Nebraska poets. He brings humor and
occasional cynicism to reflections about “the metaphysical and
metaphorical aspects” of the Sand Hills, Ted Turner and other
newcomers, the Sandoz family and other old-timers and a
considerable chunk of Western history.
