About the Book

An American Odyssey of adventure, revenge and unexpected courage in the vein of
Cold Mountain, set against the dangerous wilderness of Indian Country and
ultimately into the bloody reckoning of Custer’s Last Stand.
A Union veteran several times over, Bobby Hale has repeatedly deserted and re-enlisted
under different names to earn the enlistment bonus. After the civil war, he sets his heart
on California, but only makes it as far as Montana. Now after shooting the wrong people
he has to evade not only the US Army but also the native population.
Against the growing conflict of the Great Sioux War, Bobby is travelling across the harsh
horizon to make it back to Eveline, a poker-playing wagon owner who has taught him
that he does not have to spend his life alone. Within miles of the woman he believes
can save him, Hale’s trigger finger lands him in trouble again, changing the course of
his journey and setting him on a heart-stopping adventure across the Great Plains.
Across ten years and thousands of hard-won miles, Bobby comes to understand the
wilderness through those he encounters: the pioneers on the wagon trail who follow the
glittering promise of gold; a Crow Brave who shows him meaning of real freedom and
strength; and the militia men, still carrying the scars of the recent war, whose hatred of
“Injuns” is even stronger than their fear.
Far as the Eye Can See is the story of life in a place where every minute is an
engagement in a kind of war of survival, and of how two people in the midst of such
majesty and violence can manage to find a pathway to their own humanity.
A unique voice that evokes both Cormac McCarthy and Mark Twain
For the many fans of Dances with Wolves, March by Geraldine Brooks and
Robert Hicks’s The Widow of the South
Taking us from the Civil War to the Battle of Little Bighorn, across a thrilling
swatch of the West, Far As the Eye Can See is a fresh and vivid retelling of
one of the most significant periods in American history
