Another good book by the author of "The Bridges of Madison County." Some say Carlisle McMillan is a drifter, but Carlisle is simply a loner who has a passion for building things with his hands. When Carlisle buys a house in Salamander, South Dakota, so he can restore it as homage to the man who raised him, things turn ugly when he opposes the townpeople over a highway to be built on his land.
