A Good Man Reviews
"This tension draws out a potentially tedious journey of paper-shuffle politics into a cohesive high-stakes drama." - Publishers Weekly
"Do the Mounties always get their man? Read this satisfying
novel and find out." - Kirkus
"Vanderhaeghe is often compared to Larry McMurtry, and rightfully so, for his muscular prose readily conveys not only the nuanced love story but also the rugged beauty of the western landscape and the chaotic battle scenes that haunt his protagonists." - Booklist
"Remarkable... Deeply satisfying... There are, characteristically, bountiful and varied pleasures to be had in A Good Man... Vanderhaeghe's descriptions of the natural world [are] often as striking as Cormac McCarthy's... A Good Man caps a towering achievement worthy of celebration as loud as our humble voices can declare." - The Globe and Mail
"Vivid... A love story, a thriller, a Conradian meditation on courage and manhood, and a thoughtful examination of the origins of Canada's tangled relationship with its big southern neighbor... Vanderhaeghe has delivered an epic that matches its grand ambitions." - Winnipeg Free Press
"A rollicking story as large as the prairie is wide... The story unfolds with consistent charm and erudition." - Quill & Quire
