An excellent story of an excellent man. Brilliantly exposited in exquisite detail with unrevealed, descriptive photographs, and decisive narrative writing. Harland Eastwood, Jr., My Dad, makes me smile every single time I open the pages.

I read this book in one sitting. It is a amazing story of overcoming, excelling and changing a persons perception of what a young married couple accomplished

I have read and enjoyed many of Harlands books and found them both interesting and educational The lifes stories are true and factual .Many of the tales unfolded in his writing i was part of or close by. Enjoyable reading about history in the northwest and of the authors adventures.

I found the book to be a very interesting piece of history of the region and of the various saloons and drinking establishments of the time. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is that the book is probably more of interest to the people local to where the stories depict. Still, though, a slice of history that could have been anywhere in the west.

I know Harland Eastwood, the writer of this book as well as his father, of whom it was about, but there is very much to this story that I didn’t know. It is a well written piece of personal history that I found fascinating. I would recommend it to anyone interested in people who endured through hardship and made it seem easy and a life very worthwhile.
