One of my favorite profs at the University of Denver—Robert Richards, English—raved in class about a novel entitled Honey in the Horn by Harold L. Davis. This first novel received the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1936. The novel is newly reprinted by the University of Idaho Press. I remember Dr. Richards saying: This book was impossible to put down. It's well researched as to the history and conditions prevailing in a country (early 1900s Oregon) always hard to live in. And it's a rollicking good story. If this is a (fair & balanced) unsolicited recommendation, so be it.
