About This Book

The narrator and his companion, Hashknife Hartley, return to a familiar roadside sign and recall their earlier clash with the insular Willer Crick community. The account blends episodic travel scenes and frontier humor with a past violent feud involving stolen inheritance, dynamite, and a stoic burial, and a scheme to marry and thereby liberate Glory Sillman from a peculiar local ordinance. Encounters during their wanderings illuminate the colony's anti-establishment customs, its inbred leadership and rough justice, while the pair's easygoing camaraderie and moral ambiguity propel the episodic Western narrative.
