Doc Holt listened to the boys at the other end of the bunkhouse as they joked about the night’s excitement, and he felt sick. What they were doing bothered him. Why they were doing it bothered him. But most of all, why he wasn’t doing anything to stop it bothered him.

He always had believed that what others did wasn’t his business. But this would have to become his business now. He had to stop it....

Good story, flashed thru some parts, could have developed some of the characters but didn’t.

A good traditional Western. The only real criticism I have is there is not much in the way of a descriptive landscape that the story takes place in. So as you ride through the country with Doc you have a difficult time visualizing where he is riding.

Interesting Story

I just finished reading Doc Holt by C. J. Petit, and this story stands apart from his others with a heavier emphasis on action and violence. While still rich in historical detail, it carries several moral lessons that add depth to the narrative.

Set in Texas during the 1870s, in the aftermath of the Civil War, the story highlights the lingering hostilities of Confederate Texans toward Black people, Jews, Yankees, and anyone perceived as different. Irish immigrants and other newcomers to Texas also faced fierce discrimination, making for a compelling and thought-provoking read. I’ve enjoyed all of Petit’s historical novels and have several more on my reading list.

I experienced this book as an audiobook, downloaded from Audible, with a runtime of ten hours. Michael Alan White delivers an outstanding narration, bringing the story and its characters to life.
