Amazon.com description: Product Description: From the celebrated and uniquely American author Ivan Doigâan unforgettable portrait of the western United Statesâhis stunning Montana Trilogy: English Creek; Dancing at the Rascal Fair; and Ride With Me, Mariah Montana, now available in a boxed set.
âHere is the real Montana, the real West, through the eyes of a real writer.â âWallace Stegner
Covering the first century of Montanaâs statehood from 1889 to 1989, Ivan Doigâs Montana Trilogy follows the McCaskill family and their alluring Two Medicine country along the hem of the northern Rockies.
Doig first recounts the events of a Two Medicine country summer in English Creek, as fourteen-year-old Jick McCaskill comes of age. Through Jickâs eyes we see his friends and family at turning points and discover Jickâs own connection to the land, to history, and to the deep-fathomed mysteries of oneâs kin and oneâs self.
The central volume in Doigâs acclaimed trilogy, Dancing at the Rascal Fair, explores the American experience at the turn of the century, a passionate portrayal of the immigrants who dared to try new lives in the imposing Rocky Mountains.
Finally, Jick McCaskill returns in Ride With Me, Mariah Montana as the clever and moving voice in this classic encounter with the American road and all the rewards and travails it can bring. Jick faces his familyâsâand his stateâsâlegacy of loss and perseverance from the vantage point of Montanaâs centennial in 1989.
Doig created one of the most captivating families in American fiction in these prizewinning portraits of time and placeâMontana at three pivotal points in the twentieth century. Ivan Doig is âa presiding figure in the literature of the American Westâ (The New York Times Book Review) and will be canonized as such.
