This is an awesome story and the writing is absolutely amazing. I originally borrowed the book from a friend, and when I finished reading it, I actually went back to the beginning to read it through again. It was just as enjoyable the second time through. And then, just to make sure, I bought a copy of the book from Amazon. This book is definitely a "keeper". I loved it and have recommended it to several friends already, and, who knows, I may be reading it again soon! I also went back to Amazon and bought other books by the same author!

What a wonderful book. Doig knows his subject and characters so well that one feels as if it has to be an autobiography, which it isn't.
The writing itself is also excellent. I highly recommend this book, set in the days of the Montana one room schoolhouse. This intelligent novel,the endearing Milliron family of Motherless boys,and the indefatigable school teacher, Morrie, all come together to make this a book you hate to see come to an end.

Ivan Doig must be the Midwest's answer to Stegner...well written, engaging, great characters that reveal just enough (unlike our People Mag oriented society). One of those books I am so glad to have read and will recommend. Also enjoyed the historical perspective of the United States at that time of one room school houses, etc.

A good read. Not spectacular.
The point of view, time period, certain situations reminded me of The Waltons. Not a bad thing, but that's what came to mind.

This book is told from the perspective of Paul as an adult, looking back on his youth growing up in Marias Coulee and attending a one-room schoolhouse. The plot ambles along, rather than charges, but the characters come to life and the story is well written. If you're a person who appreciates a well-worded and clever phrase, you will love this book because it's chock full of them. This book felt like an antidote to the crazy, overbooked, super-speed pace of my life.
