We have picked
“The Legend of Colton H. Bryant” by Alexandra Fuller for our discussion group. We will be meeting on
March 18th at 6pm. If you would like to join our group please call the library and ask us to get a book for you. Here is a excerpt from a review of the book.
Colton, the unlikely hero at the center of the book, is no John Wayne, no Gary Cooper. Raised in the Upper Green River Valley of Wyoming, he loves hunting and fishing, idolizes his father (also an oil rigger), swigs Mountain Dew by the gallon, marries young, drives a Ford pickup, and works hard to provide for his family. There’s nothing flashy or extraordinary about this Wyoming boy, and his biographer plays it straight nearly every step of the way. Fuller writes with a colloquial style, as if she’s talking her way through a story with readers as rapt listeners.
