	washingtonpost.com: William Faulkner's Southern Draw: 'The Reivers'
		I read "The Reivers," as I read everything else, not because I had to but because I desperately wanted to, though notes scrawled in my copy remind me that I also read it with an eye to Faulkner's treatment of fl characters and racial issues, about which I wrote a paper.
		What is certain is that "The Reivers" is notable for the intimate relationships between a number of its fl and white characters.
		One aspect of "The Reivers" that is both interesting and unusual is that it is a coming-of-age novel written not at the beginning of its author's career but at the very end.

		Reivers preyed on their neighbours, protection money paid by one clan to a larger Reiver clan came to be known as flmail.
		If a Reiver's wife wanted to let her man know it was time to take to reiving again she would serve him a platter with a pair of spurs laid upon it.
		Reiver family names included those of the Armstrongs, Nixons, Douglases, Nobles Pringles, and Routledges and Radcliffes.

	BBC SPORT \| WELSH-SCOTTISH RUGBY \| Ross seals late victory for Reivers
		Reivers opened brightly and Iain Fullarton was knocked into touch near the visitors line, but it was Llanelli who opened the scoring from the boot of Stephen Jones after four minutes.
		Reivers lost Martin Leslie to injury before Llanelli extended their lead with a try from Guy Easterby, his first for the club after a summer transfer from Ebbw Vale, converted by Jones.
		Both Reivers' Barry Stewart and Llanelli's Phil Booth were sin-binned after an incident on the ground on which referee Iain Ramage took advice from his touch-judge.

	The Reivers and Kinmont Willie
		For many years, I imagined that Scottish reivers were something like the American Wild West cattle rustlers: renegade cowboys who did a bit of thieving on the side.
		Of course, he was also a renowned reiver himself, and had plenty of grievance with Lord Scrope, the Warden of the English Middle March.
		The reivers were violent, lawless men, with a fierce sense of pride and shifting loyalties.

		The Reivers were the "Band of the Week" on MIT's campus radio station, WMBR (Cambridge, Massachusetts) for the week of April 11-15.
		Each morning at 8:30 a Reivers song was played and on Thursday the 14th, two songs were played ("It's About Time" and "Over and Over"), preceded by a short history of the band.
		Proving that it's a small world (or at least a "small Austin"), Kim Longacre was part of Violet Crown on their 1996 EP cassette...which was produced by John Croslin.

	BBC - Legacies - Myths and Legends - Scotland - Borders - The Border Reivers
		From the 13th Century through to the beginning of the 17th, the border lands between England and Scotland were home to the Reivers, lawless gangs who survived by plundering livestock, but who also engaged in other practises such as kidnapping and racketeering.
		The lives and deeds of the Reivers were celebrated in the famous Border Ballads, popularised by Sir Walter Scott in the 18th Century.
		The Ballads portray the Reivers in a romantic light and as brave, noble and honourable.

	Reivers Way Introduction
		The Reivers Way is a walk of great contrasts, from rolling farmland to riverside paths in mature mixed woodland, from the wide open spaces of the Cheviot Hills to the expansive seashore along Northumberland’s “Heritage” coastline.
		As James Roberts notes in his excellent and still accurate guide, the name &#8220;Reivers Way” was chosen to commemorate the raiders on both sides of the border between England and Scotland for whom the region is (in)famous.
		We chose to break our days on the Reivers Way in approximately the same fashion as Roberts did in his guidebook, the exception being diversions on days three and four as recommended by another walker to avoid some of the most difficult and laborious walking en route to Wark.

	The 50 Greatest Rock & Roll Albums of All Time (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-05)
		This album, their first of four relatively consistent discs issued during their brief tenure, was initially released under the band name Zeitgeist, but a legal dispute with another band led to a switch to the Reivers.
		John Croslin and Kim Longacre's shared vocal duties, particularly on the duets, helped distinguish the Reivers from some of the more staid artists of their ilk, at times making them come across like jangle-pop's answer to X. Tunes like "Things Don't Change," "Araby," and the title track are entrancing guitar jangle at its best.
		Their middle two albums, while still fine, had a little less edge to them, but make for great listening nonetheless (and were subsequently reissued with improved sound and bonus tracks).

	Ananova - Bennett blasts Reivers
		The Reivers were crushed at Cardiff last week before the 25-3 defeat at Bridgend at the weekend.
		And Bennett said the reason for the Super Districts' poor start to the season was "mental" and claimed that the excuse of long distance travel to Wales on a fortnightly basis was not a realistic one.
		Bennett was particularly scathing about the Reivers, who added several Scotland internationals to their side during the summer.

		The story behind the original single is a fascinating example of how the record industry sometimes worked at the time.
		Ilene Berns of Bang, and Eddie Biscoe of White Whale, were at Muscle Shoals while Paul was recording there, and had the idea for him to record Revolution In My Soul for White Whale under the ficticious name of the Reivers.
		Constantly, a demo probably recorded at Malaco, wound up on the B-side, but ended up getting more airplay, hence its appearance on the "Happy Together" compilation.

		This exciting and unique festival celebrates a well-known and romanticised period of history when the borderlands of Scotland and England were the home of cattle thieves and outlaws, men who lived by fire and steel, men known as the Border Reivers.
		Experience the sights, sounds, smells and tastes of the days of the Border Reivers as re-enactors, costumed craftspeople, musicians and street entertainers transform the area into a bustling 16th century street scene.

	Amazon.com: Video: The Reivers (1969) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-05)
		The Reivers, based on a William Faulkner novel, is a spirited comedy-drama starring Steve McQueen in a rare character part as Boon Hoggenbeck, a ne'er-do-well, turn-of-the-century Mississippi farm hand and cousin of 11-year-old naif Lucius McCaslin (Mitch Vogel).
		Many of Faulkner's stories evoke a somber tone of Southern Gothic tragedy based on his observations of racial intolerance, and the decline of traditional Southern values before the forces of greed and modernization.
		Based on William Faulkner's sweetest novel, THE REIVERS (Paramount) is set in Mississippi, circa 1905.

	The Austin Chronicle Music: Pop Beloved
		A band vote produced the Reivers, after the William Faulkner book, so it's at this point that the story of Zeitgeist becomes that of the Reivers.
		Maybe the Reivers didn't make a noticeable impact for the same reason that 9.9 out of 10 bands don't: They just didn't catch on.
		Nevertheless, the Reivers albums weren't without fans, and the band can take small consolation in knowing they were influential to some.

		As the sun set in the clear blue sky, a 1000-strong crowd gathered in the Common Haugh to witness a skirmish involving raiding Reivers heralding the beginning of a torchlight procession led by Hawick Scout Fellowship Pipe Band and entertainers from the Borders Youth Theatre.
		Even the residents in the hospital were seen gazing on from their windows as the sky became ablaze with colour and explosions.
		Although the cool night air sent some people home after the bonfire, the night's finale was a spellbinding half-hour 'fireshow' entitled Refractions performed on a specially constructed open-air set by the Edinburgh-based te Pooka theatre company and featuring fire breathing, fire swinging, dance and stiltwalking choreographed to a drum-propelled soundtrack.

		The Reivers also features two additional benefits: the divine Miss Reba (second only to Granny Millard as Faulkner's most entertaining and resourceful female character); and the much-appreciated absence of that nosy and annoying popinjay Gavin Stevens.
		Unlike many of Faulkner's stories The Reiver's comedic and lighthearted and at the same time it tackles and touches on many of the dark and not so comedic sectors of human nature.
		As I said earlier Lucius and party are travelling to Memphis, but in The Reivers it is not the destination that is important to the story it is how they get their.

		Growing up in Mississippi in the early 1900s, Lucius finds himself (through a hectic series of circumstances) in a bordello, where he is nearly killed trying to defend the "fast lady" ( Sharon Farrell) who has befriended him.
		Meanwhile, Vogel's grandfather ( Will Geer), who owns the fancy automobile that the "reivers" hope to win back, threatens to reappear at any moment to tan Lucius's bottom.
		Not exactly as wholesome as a Disney film, The Reivers is nonetheless acceptable family entertainment, with Steve McQueen delivering one of his best and most laid-back performances.

		THE REIVERS tells the story of one such SAS unit fighting Germans in the North African desert during World War II.
		A unit led by two young officers: Barclay, a by-the-numbers soldier who just wants the job done right, and Nixon, a reckless breakneck who seems to revel in the chaos of war.

		Based on William Faulkner's novel, THE REIVERS is a coming-of-age story laced with adventure and comedy.
		Young Lucius McCaslin (Mitch Vogel) leaves home and sets off on a journey with Boon (Steve McQueen), the family handyman, who is a reiver (cheating philanderer); and his best friend, Ned (Rupert Crosse).

		Tagline: Boon is a reiver (that's a cheat, a liar, a brawler and womaniser) and he had just four days to teach young Lucius the facts of life (like cheating, lying, brawling and womanizing).
		Together with Clarence Browns version of Intruder In The Dust, this must count as one of the few good film versions of Faulkner.
		The Reivers was his last, his tenderest, his funniest, and his most accessible book, and this is a tender, funny, and accessible film.

	The Reivers Summary & Study Guide by William Faulkner
		The Reivers Study Guide Summary by William Faulkner
		The Reivers was a popular novel in part because it tells a wonderfully complicated tall tale to a considerable extent in Faulkner's characteristically difficult style and yet is fairly accessible, very funny, and both risque and wholesome in a sense that American readers tend to like.
		Somewhat like Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884), this story takes an innocent boy with a sure sense of right and wrong into a wild world of gambling, debauchery, prostitution, horse-racing, political corruption, and rowdiness.
