| Publisher Description: In 1910, Hewey Calloway, the footloose cowboy of the unforgettable The Good Old Boys, is facing a great crisis: Forces he can't control are interrupting his free-wheeling life in the "Smiling Country" of West Texas. Fences, trucks, and automobiles -- all things Hewey hates -- are ruining the landscape, and another thing he has never had or wanted, "responsibility, " seems to dogging his footsteps. Hewey tries to adjust to technology and assess his future even as he is haunted by his decision, four years ago, to run away from Spring Renfro, the only woman he ever loved. |
