ABOUT RIDE FOR JUSTICE

 

The Arizona Authors Association has recognized Ride For Justice by John Harte as one of the top four published novels in its 2008 Arizona

 

Ride For Justice earned an Honorable Mention in the 2008 Beach Book Festival, placed second in the Indie Excellence Awards for 2008, and was a finalist in the ForeWord Magazine 2008 contest.

 

“…Written in the tradition of classic western dramas, Ride for Justicesatisfies readers’ need for hot-footed action, down-and-dirty romance and even offers a few moral lessons about the universal contradictions of war and the complexity of relations among races before, after and during the Civil War. The writing is easy to comprehend and enjoy.  . . .  An entertaining, well-written ride into the sunset.

                          Kirkus Discoveries, June 2008

           "Harte's historically account of life on the Texas frontier and Jack's search for the man whose bloody hand has touched all three of the men from the Bar T was smooth, entertaining reading, and his first novel is well done. He avoided the pitfalls of over-dramatization that sometimes creep into the best of a writer's work and it is not burdened with useless adjectives"

5.0 out of 5 stars The many participants in the civil war participated for many different reasons. , September 6, 2008
By  Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
The many participants in the civil war participated for many different reasons. "Ride for Justice" is a telling of these reasons. It follows one Tom, fighting sheerly out of duty and honor. It follows Jamie, one who only wants to gain glory. It follows Jack, who fights for justice. Three stories, different yet similar at the same time outline the novel, making "Ride for Justice" a highly recommended historical and western piece of fiction.

     Ridefor Justice is a classic western novel, but it's distinguishing quality is the development of his characters.
