Crossing to Safety - Wallace Stegner

I don't know that I have ever read anything by Stegner that wasn't beautifully written and engaging.  This book is no exception.  A simple tale of the frienship of two couples over a period of time, Stegner as usual, is able to create a story that stimulates the reader with his great writing style and ability to create great characters.  I enjoyed this book from beginning to end and found myself smiling at passages expertly composed and drawing into the book.  Another fine example of what made Stegner one of America's great writers.
