About the Author
Ivan Doig, a master storyteller of the American West, drew from his Montana roots to craft narratives rich in history, humor, and human resilience. Born in 1939 in White Sulphur Springs, Montana, he grew up on sheep ranches and logging camps, experiences that infused his writing with vivid authenticity and a deep sense of place. Doig's prose captures the rugged beauty and complex lives of frontier folk, blending meticulous research with lyrical insight. A former ranch hand, journalist, and university professor, he authored over a dozen books, earning acclaim for his evocative portrayals of the Pacific Northwest and beyond. His legacy endures as a chronicler of the vanishing West, where ordinary people confront extraordinary landscapes and legacies.
