One of McMurtry's most powerful and moving achievements * Los
Angeles Times *
Gorgeous . . . violent, funny, achingly sad, filled with heroism
and regret . . . If you can put Streets of Laredo down, I'll
eat my ten-gallon hat * Cosmopolitan *
Those who have been waiting . . . for an appropriate sequel to the
memorable and Pulitzer-winning Lonesome Dove can take heart.
Streets of Laredo continues that epic of the waning years of
the Texas Rangers with all the narrative drive and elegiac passion
of its forerunner * Publishers Weekly *
McMurtry has written a sad, funny elegy not only for his
characters' pasts, but for the waning of the American West * New
York Times *
