Praise for Robert Morgan:
Robert Morgan's lyric mountain language is equal to the epic sweep of history, to the grandeur of the land itself.
— Lee Smith. . .
Words plain and deep as the hills...
— Booklist. . .
Morgan writes with an enviable clarity that makes personalities, issues and event come alive on the page.
