"Set in the late 19th century, Lonesome Dove is an adventurous story of a cattle drive from Texas to Montana.
The narrative centers around two friends: Augustus McCrae, a reluctant rancher who has a way with women, and W.
F. Call, whose talent for leadership conceals a secret sorrow.
For Gus, Call, and the others who join the journey, the cattle drive is not only a daring and, perhaps, foolhardy endeavor, it comes to represent American dreams of the West." --Provided by the publisher
