MEDIA REVIEWS

My San Antonio.com Books staff writer Steve Bennett said, "Full of tales of Spanish explorers, Indian attacks, heartless outlaws and determined settlers, [Patrick Dearen]'s book ["Devils River: Treacherous Twin to the Pecos"] shows why this area of southwest Texas was once 'a place deemed unfit for Saint Peter, but a proper abode for the fallen Lucifer.'"
