This is a classic and well worth the read. Nonetheless, the author seems to have a problem using commas and sometimes the prose is beyond endurance. I rarely say this: the movie is better than the book, particularly the role of Jett brilliantly interpreted by James Dean. Ferber sure paints an historic picture of Texas and it was only after reading the novel that I understood the virulant critiques tacked on at the end.
