This greathearted novel is the finale of Ivan Doig's passionate and
authentic trilogy about the McCaskill family and their alluring Two
Medicine country along the hem of the northern Rockies.
Jick McCaskill, the illustrious narrator of "English Creek, "
returns as the witty and moving voice in this classic encounter
with the American road and all the rewards and travails it can
bring. Jick faces his family's -- and his state's -- legacy of loss
and perseverance from the vantage point of Montana's centennial in
1989 when his daughter Mariah enlists him as Winnebago chauffeur to
her and her ex-husband, the magnificently ornery and eloquent
columnist Riley Wright, when their news-paper dispatches them to
dig up stories of the "real Montana." Just as the centennial is a
cause for reflection as well as jubilation, the exuberant travels
of this trio bring on encounters with the past in "memory storms"
that become occasions for reassessment and necessary accommodations
of the heart.
