Guthrie Jr. is best known for his historical fiction; his classic novel \u003cem\u003eThe Way West\u003c\/em\u003e earned him a Pulitzer Prize. Guthrie had the ability to create memorable yet believable characters, was skillful in his use of narration and point of view, and possessed a notable flair for describing the landscape of the American West. It is unsurprising, perhaps, that Guthrie also had a deft talent for short fiction. \u003cem\u003eThe Big It and Other Stories\u003c\/em\u003e collects his diverse shorter tales, written between 1946 and 1960.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOften relying on a few recorded facts as a springboard for his lively and sympathetic imagination, Guthrie explores many of his favorite themes--communion between man and nature, the test of manhood, resilience in the face of new or dangerous situations--with a sure and steady hand that always holds the reader's interest. Full of humor and excitement, \u003cem\u003eThe Big It and Other Stories\u003c\/em\u003e showcases Guthrie's art in a new genre and spotlights the love for the West and for westerners that is the hallmark of his writing. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA.
