Fall reading

New books worth a look

 

A harvest of good books is on its way this fall, from big names like Annie Proulx, T.C. Boyle, and Farley Mowat, as well as lesser-known writers like John Addiego, Selden Edwards and Bonnie Henderson. We've chosen a selection of new titles, by Western authors and/or on Western subjects, that we'd like to have on our shelves. All have been recently released or will be in the next few months; we've listed them here alphabetically according to the author's last name.
