This weekend the St. Louis Post Dispatch published a review of Damming the Osage. Written by Steve Weigenstein, author of Slant of Light, a historical novel set in the Civil War, “Tangled History of Osage River” (find it here) is a concise, but encompassing, description. When the reviewer really ‘gets’ what we are trying to do and the way we did it – it is rewarding! I especially liked his final paragraph:

Like the Osage itself, this book meanders. Those desiring a more compact, straightforward narrative — a channelized book, so to speak — will be disappointed. But those willing to follow its twists and turns will find, like a river floater, surprises and pleasures around every bend.

After the review was published orders came in to amazon.com and they sold out of stock. We’re hoping they reorder soon. Of course, it’s still available through our Web site!
