Fuji Fire

Review in The Military Report:

“If you want to understand what leadership looks like— and what happens when it fails—this is the book. Not glamorous. Not heroic. Just true.”

Review in Warriors Publishing:

“It’s compelling reading and fascinating storytelling by a man who understands both the action and emotions involved.”

Virginia Faulkner

Review in Publishers Weekly:

“Bigelow sketches an intimate portrait of Faulkner and makes a convincing case that her efforts were foundational to future Cather researchers. This restores Faulkner to her rightful place in literary history.”

When We Only Have the Earth

Review in World Literature Today:

“The call to action that ends the collection—’Dare to love [the earth] beyond all rational thought’—is radical and radial, as Waberi shows us how to ‘turn into earth both literally and figuratively.'”

Coming to a Neighborhood Near You

Review in North American Review:

“It’s like a long narrative poem constructed with facts and voice instead of verse. It’s not at all easy to pull off but Reese does it masterfully.”

In the Japanese Ballpark

Review in The Sports Bookie:

“Fitts channels his knowledge and passion of Japanese baseball into his work, and In the Japanese Ballpark is another excellent example.”

Wallace Stegner’s Unsettled Country

Review in the Journal of Arizona History:

“A valuable work of western history that will serve as a reference for far more meditations on Stegner’s utility in an uncertain present and future. This books is not to be missed.”

Review in Utah Historical Quarterly:

“Perhaps there is something to glean from his writings—some bit of hope to drastically alter our current trajectory. But in order to do that, we need to know Stegner the man, not Stegner the sage. For this reason, Wallace Stegner’s Unsettled Country is an important and valuable work.”

Review in Western American Literature:

“This handsomely produced collection of critical and historical essays—which emerged from a 2019 symposium at Montana State University on Stegner’s intellectual, artistic, and political legacies—provides an admirably balanced appraisal of how his work holds up under the pressures of contemporary concerns.”
