Lonesome Dove
Two former Texas Rangers, Woodrow Call and Augustus McCrae, drive cattle from Texas to Montana with a crew of oddballs, misfits, and true heroes. With its roots firmly sunk in classic trail-drive lore, this novel nevertheless transcends the Western genre. Commenting on the book`s phenomenal success, McMurtry said,
LONESOME DOVE was a critical book. But that`s not how it was perceived. The romance of the West is so powerful, you can`t really swim against the current. Whatever truth about the West is printed, the legend is always more potent.
In 1987 the novel was adapted as a successful TV miniseries.
