Description
In the rugged landscape of the American West, a young boy's summer takes a dramatic turn, forever altering his perception of the world. As Billy Vogelin Starr spends time at his grandfather's New Mexico ranch, he witnesses events that expose the harsh realities of a changing frontier. This coming-of-age story delves into themes of government overreach, the destruction of nature, and the quiet resistance against forces that threaten the wild. Through Billy's eyes, the novel captures the spirit of the dying West with poignant observations and a powerful narrative.
