“McCarthy does not simplify this problem of information with omniscient introductions of characters, places, events.6 The kid, McCarthy’s protagonist, wouldn’t know who Albert Speyer is, since the kid didn’t ride with the Rangers during the Mexican War.”

“McCarthy’s craft can better be appreciated when his reader can distinguish the nineteenth-century backgrounds within the imaginative synthesis of his novel. A review of source texts displays both McCarthy’s devotion to historical authenticity and the audacity with which he tailors sources to his own ends.”
