Advance praise for A Strong West Wind
“I loved A Strong West Wind. [Caldwell] writes of her adventures
in the sixties and seventies, and the quest for truth in
California, with the authentic voice of the children who once made
life hell for the ‘Greatest Generation’ and in the process turned
out pretty great themselves.”
–Russell Baker
“Gail Caldwell’s quiet, burnished memoir is a story of a life’s
affections—for her Texas parents, for the sere landscape of the
panhandle, and for the road paved with book upon precious book that
runs in both directions: far away and home again.”
—Richard Ford
“Gail Caldwell’s book measures the sweep of one life against
literature, history, legends of Texas, and the infallible truth of
real feeling. This is a brave and moving work.”
—James Carroll
“An elegant memoir. Gail Caldwell performs something like
alchemy—taking the base metals of the Texas Panhandle badlands and
turning them into pure gold.”
—Ward Just
