The Queen of Americana Strikes Again
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Dorothy Garlock has long been one of my favorite authors. Her perceptions of depression-era life and settling the American west mirror those of my grandparents and great-grandparents. "Leaving Whiskey Bend" is an adventure on which I could see myself and my women friends. Loyalty, integrity, and gritty character shine in this one.

Dorothy Garlock always makes me feel that I am at the place where the action is. Great book. I couldn't put it down until I was finished. A must buy book. Lots of action and a few laughs.

Wonderful reading. Dorothy never fails to deliver a good story. I have never read a book of hers that I did not like. Recommend very highly.
Leaving Whiskey Bend

I have read nearly all of Dorothy Garlock's books and always look forward to new offerings from her. She never disappoints. I especially enjoy her stories about life in the 30's and 40's. That would have been MY youth. Leaving Whiskey Bend is not one of my favorites of hers, although it is a good story. It is nearly impossible to imagine people behaving the way they do in this story, especially in today's society, and getting away with it!
