Reviews
On Feb 28 2020, a reader said:
Logan Stuart and George Camrose are friends with Lucy Overmire and each think they have the inside track with her. Stuart, though, is in no hurry to deepen his relationship with her because he is busy growing his business and making a living. Camrose has a gambling problem, he tries desperately to keep hid. Lucy is independent enough to know her own mind, maybe. The plot and sub-plots in this book make it highly enjoyable and open up the intrigues and mysteries which surround a town full of people; there are no card board characters in this novel! Gold fever, Indian reprisals, greed in general, a mountain wilderness just beginning to grow--all the things necessary to make the country groan and sigh. The movie version with Dana Andrews, Brian Donlevy and Susan Hayward is an excellent adaption of this book, and go quite well together; you can read it first or watch it first, and neither will disappoint or deny you the enjoyment of either. Canyon Passage, a celebrated novel by a celebrated author. Get it.
