Baltimore Sun"A first-rate piece of swift-moving and dramatic story-telling in restrained and effective modern American prose." New York Times"In an era of brutal fiction, The Old Man's Place will take a prize for brutality. Sanford writes well. He has a talent for it. He is vivid, realistic, skillful, dramatic."
