Detalii:

Another fine, reflective, anecdotal look at rural Texas. -New Yorker Graves writes eloquently about a countrymans concerns. Theres not a false note in the book. -Boston Globe Like the unmortared stone fences of Gravess native hill country, From a Limestone Ledge is constructed of bits and pieces never designed to fit together, yet made to achieve a unity that is more enduring than the sum of its individual parts by the hands of a master craftsman. -Southwestern Historical Quarterly The beauty of his work endures, and there is a greater pride in Texans hearts for their home, I think, than there would be if he hadnt written the books he did. -Rick Bass, Garden & Gun In describing the particulars of his surroundings, Graves often was describing the world in microcosm and the place and plight of humankind in it. -Bryan Woolley, Dallas Morning News
