With \u003ci\u003eArt in America\u003c\/i\u003e, McLarty has invented another unforgettable protagonist in one failed writer, Steven Kearney. Hired by the Creedemore Historical Society to write and direct a play about the rural Southern Colorado town, he unwittingly stumbles into a range war over property rights, a media circus, a diabolical plan that threatens the very safety of the town-and, with the help of a little romance, newfound self-confidence. With its sprawling cast of vivid characters and spellbinding pace, \u003ci\u003eArt in America\u003c\/i\u003e confirms Ron McLarty's enormous talent.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ron McLarty\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0143115545\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143115540\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.36w x 0.82d","brand":"Ron McLarty","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48443296710911,"sku":"9780143115540","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b7f26fe9-8f3d-490f-9eeb-81875bfb7d77.jpg?v=1777204555","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/art-in-america-ron-mclarty-9780143115540","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
