Ride With Me,
Mariah Montana
by Ivan Doig
November 1991, reprint edition, Paperback,
(fiction)
With a plot that involves a road trip in which the main
characters intend to document Montana's centennial celebration, you are guaranteed to get
a good feel for the place in an easy read. The language used by the characters is
fascinating, although I found each did not have a distinctive voice. Doig writes
from the heart and has a fine sense of history, and this well-researched novel is the
final volume in his McCaskill trilogy.
