I really enjoyed the book and would recommend it as a good read. The book was more meaningful to me because the author and some of the people he wrote about in the book are known to me. I can verify that the accounts of which I am acquainted in the book are true.

I commend the author for spinning a great story from true-life events and also for writing something that everyone can read. I am so proud to know him and call him a friend!

5.0 out of 5 stars "Glass Mountain", November 28, 2000

I recently read the novel "Glass Mountain" and was facinated with the police story in a way I have not experienced before. If cops really are as they have been depicted in the novel, then we are blessed to have men like this protecting us. With every page I experienced a new emotion and actually recognized people and places that really do exist. It became very personal. The Author did a terrific job in writing. His description of events was brilliant, and it made me feel like I was there. It held my interest so that I couldnt wait to read the next page. I bought five more books for my Son and Grandsons so they would know how a man experiences hardships, emotion, and real love for his friends, women and family.

5.0 out of 5 stars Strings to my heart, November 24, 1999

By

I expected a police adventure novel with a hope for good entertainment. Instead I got a story that went straight to my heart. Who is this author? It is obvious he was a policeman. It is a wonder to me that he not only had authentic police expisodes in his moving novel, but brought in horses, cattle ranching and the Paiute Indian people, who end up being the heros of this wonderfully written story. I didn't want it to end and I felt a strong compassion for the men who swore to the code of law enforcement. The love story was clean and powerful. What a joy this story brought to my heart. I recommend it to anyone who wants adventure that will not let you put the book down and the kind of love story we wish we all could experience.
