read ing "Hunted"--a novel by John Holt who has produced a couple of

A story about a good guy rancher who fights the assault of civilization. I
suggest he sticks to fishing guides,
By the way wolfgang --what can we call the other authors who brag on his
book on the back cover?Please repay the favor?
They compare his writing with Stegner and Proulx. Heck it is more like

I haven't had a chance to read it yet, but Greycliff Publishing Company
of Helena, Montana is (or has) apparently reprinting Macdonald Hastings'
"Montague Cork" series, if you're into mysteries. The first, "Cork on
the Water" lists a pub date of September 1999. If you, or anyone else,
is interested in more info, I have an advance review copy (which I
though a little odd as it a reprint of a reprint, but...), with
associated material, and don't mind posting further info from it (and
for the terminally picky, it is an ARC sent under publisher's cover
letter to us, and so, yes, I am authorized to quote from it).
