Review title: A Pleasant Surprise
Product review: I watched the Canadian History Channel's presentation of Deadwood last fall and became an instant fan. When my wife presented me with a copy of the 1986 novel I was immediately suspicious that this would be western pulp with no basis in history. Boy was I wrong! This novel could be sub-titled "The Charlie Utter Story". Charlie's colorful career is the vessel that carries you through this wonderful period of history; a history that's filled with comedy, tragedy, and always fascinating characters. Al Swearingen turns out to be somewhat more liberal in his sexual tastes than his HBO namesake. Handsome Dick, Bill's wife Agnes, Captain Jack, Pink Buford, the Bottle Fiend, the China Doll, the vile Boone May, and Sol Star's involvement in the great Deadwood fire could provide the basis for many new seasons of the HBO show.Pete Dexter is a genius who has taken American histoy and turned it into one of the most entertaining books that I've read in the past year.
