4.0 out of 5 stars Hope Mountain is a great gift book !, January 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Hope Mountain (Hardcover)

While this is not a traditional Jon Land novel, it's a great inspirational piece and provides insight on ski schools for the physically challenged. I bought several copies of this and gave them out as Xmas gifts. I tip my hat to Mr. Land for going out on a limb and digressing from his traditional "McCracken" style.

1.0 out of 5 stars If you are expecting a typical Jon Land book, forget it!, December 15, 1998

By A Customer

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Hope Mountain (Hardcover)

This is not a typical Jon Land book. There is no thrill, no mystery, no complex characters. It is a sweet (saccharin) story, very short. Had I known that it was not like his previous books I would have saved my money!
