Read the Press and Critic Reviews for Colter’s Run

"Frontier Run Inspires: John Colter’s story of survival in what would later become Montana makes for good reading, possible movie."
—The Missoulian

"Contemptuous of danger, John Colter set out into the unknown, and, quite miraculously, he always safely returned. In the end, Colter left this world barely a footnote in American history.

Stephen T. Gough’s new historical novel Colter’s Run embellishes the multi-dimensional life and exploits of a man oft equated with the epic early days of Montana, bringing a new level of speculation – and perhaps sagacity – to an all-too-frequently caricatured figure."
—Brian D'Ambrosio, Guest Writer

"... the potential “story” enclosed within the pages of your book “Colter’s Run” makes that of Hugh Glass in “The Revenant” pale in comparison and gives rise to the notion of what putting John Colter’s story in that venue might accomplish."
—Dale A. Burk, Stoneydale Press
