Critics Review

NetGalley Review: 5 stars

Last updated on 12 Jan 2022

”“Wild Salvation” by Alfred Stifsim is a beautifully written novel of the Old West as seen through the eyes of a man being hunted for a crime he did not commit. Author Stifsim’s extensive knowledge of the West delivers a work of historical fiction filled with plethora of colorful characters. We are privy to their hardscrabble lives…some rise, others sink into despair. This action packed adventure provides a delightful journey into the West of old. Highly recommended.“–Fran Eichenauer, educator at William Floyd Schools “Netgalley”
