John Holt Hunted: A Novel
GLOBE PEQUOT ( THE LYONS PRESS 1585747807 / 9781585747801 Hardcover BOOK
A seething novel about the consequences - natural & supernatural - of corporate greed in the High Plains of the American West. 6x8 inches, 256 pgs.
'When corporate coal strip-mining interests begin to take over a ranching town in southeastern Montana all hell breaks loose. It seems the land is fighting back: vast sage flats erupt in fire, massive storms blast down from all directions, and an extinct buffalo wolf is heard howling in the night. One man tries to hold back the tide of disaster: Joe Graves, a rancher whose family has farmed this arid, harsh land for generations.
Graves knows the land better than anyone. What he doesn't know is that his father sold the mineral rights to the ranch'and Graves is about to find out that Dark Star (the corporate giant) is coming to claim those rights. What Dark Star doesn't realize is that it will have more than just a mere man to fight'the very elements are set against them.
Steeped in atmosphere and electrically charged suspense, this graphic, shocking novel firmly establishes John Holt's authority as a novelist, and reveals his own dark vision of what 'civilization' is doing to the West.
REVIEWS
'Hunted is a beautifully written and highly entertaining story about a breed of men and women whose like will never be seen in this country again, and the last Montana stronghold where a few can still be found.'
'Howard Frank Mosher, author of The Fall of the Year and A Stranger in the Kingdom
'John Holt's novel Hunted is the human nervous system scraped down to bare metal. Think Carl Hiaasen crossed with James Ellroy' an outrageous tale of the unending battle against corporate greed, set in the bleak, beautiful High Plains of eastern Montana.'
'Robert F. Jones, author of The Run to Gitche Gumee

A refreshing & often exhilarating look at the natural wonder of Montana's Yellowstone River. Offers a wild ride down this natural treasure, examining the wildlife, the people, the fishing, & the river itself. 5.5x7 inches, 275 pgs.
'In a time when everything seems to be regulated, controlled, and monitored, Yellowstone Drift is a refreshing and often exhilarating look at the natural wonder of Montana's Yellowstone River.
High above sea level in the mountains of the Yellowstone National Park plateau, the river tumbles and rushes down to the Paradise Valley just north of Livingston, Montana, before meandering through the northern high plains for well over five hundred serpentine miles to its confluence with the Missouri River in North Dakota. Each chapter of Yellowstone Drift chronicles a leg of John Holt's journey down the river, promising that the reader doesn't miss a single mile of natural beauty. Holt, in his customary free-form, anecdotal style and oblique vision, takes the reader on a wild ride down this natural treasure, examining the wildlife, the people, the fishing, and the river itself.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
John Holt is the author of the acclaimed Reel Deep series of trout fishing books, the comic-gothic novel Hunted, and Coyote Nowhere: In Search of America's Last Frontier. He lives in Livingston, Montana, with his wife Ginny, a photographer.
