The Wandering Hill (The Berrybender Narratives, Vol. 2)

n The Wandering Hill, Larry McMurtry continues the sweeping saga of the aristocratic Berrybender family as they press deeper into the American West during the 1830s. Faced with freezing rivers, hostile tribes, brutal mountain men, and the ever-looming legend of the “wandering hill”, the family’s pursuit of adventure takes a dark turn. Tasmin Berrybender’s marriage to the mountain man Jim Snow becomes the emotional heart of this volume as survival becomes their only certainty. 

Packed with historical figures like Kit Carson and real perilous terrain, this novel is both an epic exploration of the frontier and a penetrating study of class, culture, and the wildness of the land. A must-read for fans of historical fiction, westerns, and McMurtry’s rich storytelling.

Condition:  Very Good. The front cover does have a few scrapes around the top, and The Bookstore stamp is on the first inside page.
