Book Review of True Grit (Movie Tie-In Edition)

True Grit (Movie Tie-In Edition)
reviewed on + 2 more book reviews


This book is now considered a classic western by some. The style of speaking, dress and habits are very true to the time and place.

As I read the book I kept picturing John Wayne and Kim Darby who stared in the original movie by the same name.

I also enjoyed the modern version staring Jeff Bridges and think his age was closer to the Rooster Cogburn the author described.

It is a fast, enjoyable read.
