Reviews of CITIES OF GOLD
“A fearful, fascinating tale.” -Los Angeles Times
“The Old West’s last glimmers flicker through this piercingly beautiful adventure, an unforgettable saga in which Preston, astride his horse Popeye, traverses the desert and mountain wilderness of Arizona and New Mexico retracing the trail-blazing 1540-41 expedition of Spanish Explorer Francisco Vasquez de Coronado in search of the legendary Seven Cities of Gold … In place of the mythical winning of the West, Preston unfolds a harrowing tale of loss.” -Publishers Weekly
“The entire book is a sheer pleasure to read.“
-The San Diego Union-Tribune
“A Blue Highways on horseback, well worth the trip.”
-Kirkus Reviews
