A fresh and exhilarating novel of the American Northwest in the 1920s, written with the same buoyant vigor, the sharp characterization, the pungent wisdom that stirred readers of the author's great Pulitzer Prize winning novel, Honey In The Horn. The immense vitality of this novel is probably the result of three things: H. L. Davis is an acknowledged master story-teller, he writes here about a section of America which he has known and loved all his life, and the characters are his own contemporaries and their story has the immediacy of events which have been personally experienced. Amos Clarke, a hot-headed young sheriff's assistant, tells this story. It starts with an accidental killing. Complications arise and Amos is sent away to help an old herder move his horses into open country. The story of that trip is the story of Winds Of Morning.
