Tony Hillerman's novels swept through their readership every few years like a flash flood in the Four Corners. They weren't great literature. They weren't even very well written sentence by sentence, but they expressed a kind of warm integrity and humanity that many people preferred to the hard-nosed cynicism and sadism of much popular fiction. Tony seemed to respect and cherish his two imaginary Navajo detectives, Jim Chee and Joe Leaphorn, as if they were living human beings. For that reason, they seemed "real" to readers also.
Tony Hillerman died a few days ago, at age 83. Let's hope he was buried in the sands of Monument Valley!

I was disappointed in this book. I expected a map of the 4-corners area or several maps with details. This would have been fun to use as a reference as you read the Hillerman books to follow detectives Leaphorn & Chee travels thru Navajoland. Also, the few pictures that were in the book, were in grey & white. That would have been OK if they had been sharper and crisper.

Well rsearched and presented. Although o.f most interest to Hillerman fans, I would carry the book on any western trip to Hillerman country, good descriptions of the country. Tie in with the Indian Country AAA Map issued by the Auttomobile Club of Southern California, and Tony Hillerman's Indian Country Map and Guide. Now that i have read all of Hillerman's books, and am not traveling west any longer, I regret that this book was not available earlier. Recommend possession,fun to browse, even when not reading one of the Leaphorn/Chee books.

This book gives a wonderful, alive, feeling about the Hillerman stories. It puts the reader inside the scenes , and makes one understand the characters even better. It also makes you long to be there and visit those special places, and preserve them for all future readers.
