Christopher Leach's richly imagined and atmospheric Texas Station tells the story of a family of ranchers and their cattle operation in the years following World War II. The patriarch, Virgil, is a cantankerous old man who is constantly at odds with his son, Walt, and grandson, Tim, but also has a soft spot for young Chuck. When the family's property is seized by the government for unpaid taxes, Virgil must come to terms with the changing times and find a way to continue his tradition of ranching. Leach's characters come to life on the pages of this book, and the setting is vividly portrayed, making for a compelling read.; 8vo; $5.00.
