''Surpasses Lonesome Dove...Rings true and poignant, as authentic and moving as Dances with Wolves... Five stars is not enough....''
- Eve Paludan, Twice #1 Writers Digest National Bestselling Author

''If your mind and spirit are seduced by images of windswept ridge tops, flutters of aspen leaves caressed by a canyon breeze and the crimson tendrils of dying sun...if your fingers feel the silken pulse of a lover and your lips taste the deep kisses of building passion...if nostrils flare with the conjured scents of gunpowder and perfume, sage brush and pine, and your ears delight in the murmur of river current...if your heart pounds at the clash of good and evil, the snap of the flag in a stiff morning breeze fills you with pride, and with each twist and turn of interwoven lives you feel a primal throb, then I have accomplished my mission.'' ~Reid Lance Rosenthal

Reid's fiction works are known for the passion which fuels each thrilling romance-packed novel in his widely acclaimed series and epic of the historical and contemporary American west. Reid's debut novel and the first book of the thirty-three novel saga has been compared to McMurtry's Lonesome Dove, Michener's Centennial, the writings of Louis L'Amour (with steam!) and even Gone With The Wind, by reviewers and readers alike. Each ensuing book further unfolds the riveting, sensual, adventure-filled tale of a country on the cusp of greatness, personalities from uncommon origins and lives weaved into generational tapestries of lust, duplicity, enmity, love and triumph.

His first non-fiction work, also a bestseller, and winner of two national awards, is based on his experience and insider knowledge as a fourth-generation land and cattleman, realtor with a forty-two year, land related career in multiple states, three countries and two continents. Land for Love and Money is laced with humorous true anecdotes and no-holds-barred, hard-hitting current event facts known only to a few. Reid is a leading authority on ranch, farm, recreation, residential and large and small rural properties--from acquisition to disposition, transition structuring, management, operations, improvements, conservation easements and preservation. He purchased his first piece of land--a ranch--at the age of eighteen.

Each tale--the good, bad and ugly--affords the reader rare learning experiences on land and real estate, and valuable instruction about today's floundering financial system, real estate downturn, increasing regulation and uncertain tax climate. Social, political and urgent economic considerations critical to land purchase, enjoyment, ownership and value are revealed. Each chapter discloses invaluable secrets of land purchase and sale in unstable economic times critical to both the heart and the wallet.
