The stories in the book were well written. I found the book very interesting. Listening to the audio book made it valuable to imagine to see everything happening as reading it.

Description words easy to read

The cover title was excellent and overall, stories of New Mexico were fantastic. The more anthropological stories were a bit harder to digest and less enjoyable to me.

Some good essays. Others harder to digest.

I enjoyed the first part of the book, the great Taos bank robbery, and portions of the rest of the essays/stories. The last two were full of information, data and facts. I didn't realize we had that kind of revolution going on in the US. They were interesting, but I buy these books for entertainment and escape. This book did not do that. The first story can't carry the whole thing and I'm not active in politics. If I were, I might have known about this happening.

Tony Hillerman

Tony Hillerman has the concise descriptive style that appears expansive when exercised on the scale necessary for the landscape. That style comes from much practice. While many of these earlier works are verbose by comparison, they do show humor and a real feeling for the subject matter. The narrator tends to go into a monotone when the story get verbose and drawn out. He reads alot of it as if it were a text book, not an entertainment.

All things considered, I enjoyed and recommend this book.

New Mexico stories from the inside.

Yes, it’s Tony Hillerman from his first youthful stories as a cub reporter. He was amazing from the very beginning, when no one knew his name other than the local readers. Immediately, you feel the same quick-witted, careful observation that’s part of his novels; but also, his warmth, humility, humor, and love of New Mexico.

This edition of The Great Taos Bank Robbery has even more stories than the first release, and a foreword written by Hillerman's daughter, who is just as enchanting as her father.

I worked as a Travel Nurse on the Navajo reservation in Shiprock New Mexico back in 2012. I have a great soft spot in my heart for the state of New Mexico and it’s people. I felt this compilation of short stories, and essays about real events in New Mexico was a very interesting read, and brought back some very nice memories of my time living and working in New Mexico.

Interesting true stories of New Mexico

Tony's old school journalism training and talent are displayed well in this collection. I purchased this book for background research on some fiction I'm writing, and the stories were much more varied and entertaining than I expected. The title piece is pure entertainment, but other stories are more sober as Tony writes about the people and the culture of New Mexico. I'm not a personal fan of desert climates, but reading Tony's collection makes me want to visit New Mexico.

Great mix: history, geography&colorful characters

I thought this was about a robbery in Taos, instead it's a story about Taos and I loved it! We miss you Tony . . .

Not What I Expected and Wonderful

Tony is departed, but we have his voice for posterity. This group of stories which he found fascinating is a real treat. I'll probably listen to this repeatedly, just to bring him back, if only in voice and remembrance. Can't get enough of Tony and his daughter-novelist Anne Hillerman.

Can't help it, Hillerman fan loves his voice!
