"Winding Stair is True Grit for grown-ups… Jones relies on none of the usual Western trappings; he eschews stereotypes… The historical research is seamless-the story never slows down to admit dull exposition. Winding Stair convinces, utterly, that this is how life must have been in that place at that time… a significant and highly entertaining contribution to the popular literature of the American West." — The New York Times
"Stunning…excellent…superb…You’ll not forget it very soon." — Chicago Sun-Times
"A classic Western novel in the finest sense of that often abused term… spare, tough and honest." — Houston Post
"Jones is a meticulous craftsman whose dialects, dialogues, settings, and sayings seem so ‘right’ and natural that one has the satisfying feeling of having read a novel without one ‘false note.’" — San Francisco Sunday Examiner
