The Last Best Place: A Montana Anthology af William Kittredge
A good collection of stories, legends, Indian tales. and pioneers,etc.. Fast pace and an easy and informative read.
½Starting with Native American Indian folklore and diary accounts of expeditions through the virgin geography of Montana Last Best Place opens in the early 1700's. It ends with a section of contemporary poetry. The folklore was probably the dullest part. I firmly believe stories like these are best communicated orally because of their repetitious nature. First hand accounts of settlers seeking new land were the most interesting.This is not a book to read all at once. Its 1161 pages encourage random readings and not necessarily in chapter order.… (mere)
A mammoth book chock full of the best stories, poetry, fiction inspired by the Big Sky country. A fine collection of authors (Quammen, Maclean, Guthrie, Welch, Brautigan, Doig, Stegner, Crumley, van Cleve) give an exceptional insight into the history and personality of Montana. Too big for reading in bed, however!
