"He knew the country he knew, and had never been lost in it, but the country he knew stopped at the Arkansas River. He had known men to speak of the Yellowstone as if it were the boundary of the world; even Kit Carson, whom he had met twice, had not talked of what lay north of it."
"He loved clear nights and hated clouds—when it was cloudy he felt deprived of half the world."

I loved this book so much and already looking forward to revisting it.

Is it too soon to say I love Augustus? He cracks me up! I can't help but picture Sam Elliott. I've never watched the old series so I have no idea what to expect. I love the writing and colorful characters. The dialogue is fantastic.
"That was what Augustus wanted: argument. He didn’t really care what the question was, and it made no great difference to him which side he was on. He just plain loved to argue."

"Evening took a long time getting to Lonesome Dove, but when it came it was a comfort. For most of the hours of the day—and most of the months of the year—the sun had the town trapped deep in dust, far out in the chaparral flats, a heaven for snakes and horned toads, roadrunners and stinging lizards, but a hell for pigs and Tennesseans. There was not even a respectable shade tree within twenty or thirty miles."

This has been on my TBR since first watching 1883 a few years ago!
