 Review | The Last Crossing by Guy Vanderhaeghe
Yet, Vanderhaeghe's novel is more than a sage-and-saddle yarn filled with cowboys and Indians; it's a saga about family ties, class prejudice, and failed ambition.
Vanderhaeghe, through the medium of Charles, aims to resurrect the long-winded style of James Fenimore Cooper which is admirable but hardly productive -- especially when other sections rip along with the all the fervor of a dime novel.
The Last Crossing is a book crowded with exquisite details which hint at the long hours Vanderhaeghe spent poring over dusty manuscripts and going through the archives of historical societies.

Set on the Canadian and American frontier borderlands at the end of the 19th century, Guy Vanderhaeghe's Last Crossing is both an old-fashioned Western tale of adventure and character and a thoroughly modern, multi-voiced story of cultural conflict.
Vanderhaeghe's powerful storytelling and his complete mastery of voice and place made The Last Crossing an instant classic from the moment of its publication.
Set in the late 19th century, The Last Crossing, Guy Vanderhaeghe's first novel since his acclaimed Englishman's Boy, is the story of three well-off English brothers: twins Simon and Charles Gaunt and their elder sibling, Addington, a former soldier and an arrogant scoundrel.
