Monte Walsh

Pate Hubbard

Not only my favorite western of all time, but probably my favorite book of all time. Monte Walsh is a criminally underrated western which I think every one should read. The way in which the chapters are formatted, with every chapter almost being a self contained story, gives the reader a sense of scope and allows the book to easily skip around the life of Monte Walsh. We see Monte and his fellow cowboys at Slash Y go through the ups and downs of ranch life in the old west and really get to know the characters. By the end of the book, I felt like I had really witnessed Monte's life unfold before my eyes and the ending brought tears to my eyes. I Highly recommend reading this book.
