Through the small north-west town of Centennial, and through its history, James A. Michener has told a story rich in excitement, drama and human conflict. It is the story of the Indians, fighting for their land, of the trappers, gold-seekers, cowboys and ranchers who tried to take it from them, but, most of alle, it is a panoramic vision of the West from one of the master story-tellers of alle time.
