Tom Bruce said As good as the original, a masterpiece of literature.. Rarely is a sequel, whether it be a movie or book, as good as the original. But, rest assured that this is not the case of "The Way West," A.B. Guthrie's follow-up to "The Big Sky," and the second of six books in The Big Sky series. How good are these two volumes? Well, the first has been designated "the best novel of the American West" by the Western Literature Association. "The Way West" won the Pulitzer Price for fiction in 1950. Which is the better book? Impossible to tell, they're almost like two books in one. "The Way West" begins where "The Big Sky" ends i. Eddie Wannabee said Takes the reader back in time. A little better than Carry the Wind by another author. Surprising use of language, with certain words considered racy these days, if dialogue matches the historical facts, then it was a revelation how they expressed themselves those days. Faster paced, with plenty to enjoy most of the time.. Five Stars Dr. and Mrs.Verdi DiSesa Love this book. Even better than the first volume, The Big Sky, which is great too!
