The Western Landscape in Cormac McCarthy and Wallace Stegner: Myths of the Frontier

In this book, McGilchrist establishes a link between the western American writers Wallace Stegner and Cormac McCarthy. Her point of connection is the treatment of landscape and nature in their works, suggesting that they exemplify perspectives which are related to their authors' historical positions before and after the cultural watershed of the Vietnam era.
