“Tom paints the Western frontier in words penned with grit in his ink, dust in his lines, & thunder in his vision inviting us to embrace a mystical connection that dwells within the human spirit . . . .”

“It's good and it moves! Tom Van Dyke tells a rousing tale of a young man learning how to cowboy and finding the girl of his dreams. I've written a good 40 western stories but learned a lot from Tom's book.”

“A Cowboy Christmas is a warm, well-written tale of a young man discovering himself and the new world during an engaging adventure in the American West. I thoroughly enjoyed the picture painted by the words of Mr. Van Dyke. The book took me back in time and sparked memories of when I was working on old Western films with my friend John Wayne. I look forward to sharing this story with my family.”

“A Cowboy Christmas An American Tale is a beautiful story for all ages. Not since the work of James Dickey have I read such poetry in a novel. A wonderful remembrance for what the old West once was. Don't wait for the film, buy the book now!”

“Tom Van Dyke has crafted an inspired story of the Old West, Arizona and New Mexico Territories, 1873. A well-researched tale of an adventuresome young man, carving out a life that most men can only dream about. Hold on tight. It's a page turner and a fast ride. This magical tale fits like a vintage Stetson and good pair of boots.”
