Stories from Mesa Country — (1992)

By Jane Candia Coleman

Stories from Mesa Country is beautifully written and Coleman obviously knows the ranching/western/frontier life. This collection of stories is highly recommended reading for those who would study the frontier psyche and seek to understand why people have long been so fascinated with the wild and unsettled West.”

Clay Evans — New Mexico Magazine

“Coleman’s ability with words is spectacular and anyone interested in short fiction, whether purely as entertainment or to better understand the techniques of writing it, will appreciate, enjoy and be satisfied by this collection…. Her touch is deft, her people absolutely true and real.”
