A must-have for fans of sweeping historical Westerns.. About the Books. The Lonesome Dove series is widely regarded as one of the finest achievements in American Western fiction, anchored by McMurtry's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel Lonesome Dove, which follows former Texas Rangers Augustus "Gus" McCrae and Woodrow Call as they drive a cattle herd from the Rio Grande to Montana, encountering outlaws, settlers and the vast unforgiving frontier along the way. Streets of Laredo picks up years later, as an older Call is hired as a bounty hunter to track a vicious young bandit, riding alongside Pea Eye Parker and a motley crew of companions. Turning back the clock, Dead Man's Walk reveals Gus and Call as inexperienced young Rangers enlisting under the volatile Caleb Cobb on a doomed expedition to seize Santa Fe, confronting the brutal realities of the open plains for the first time. Comanche Moon continues their formative years, charting the Rangers' fierce struggle against the Comanche as settlers push further into contested frontier territory. Together, the four novels form an epic, character-driven saga of friendship, loyalty, violence and the slow closing of the American frontier, told with McMurtry's trademark lyrical prose and deep feeling for landscape and legend..
