Wister, an American writer whose stories helped to establish the cowboy as an archetypical, individualist hero. The book begins: By various influences and agents the Past is summoned before us, more vivid than a dream. The process seems as magical as those whereof we read in fairy legends, where circles are drawn, wands waved, mystic syllables pronounced. Adjured by these rites, voices speak, or forms and faces shape themselves from nothing. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing. |
