“Some truths are best revealed by the scientist, some by the historian, some by the artist. Gerald Grimmett reveals truths in The Ferry Woman that only an artist, a superb novelist, can reveal. He has given us a great novel.”
— Martin Naparsteck, The Salt Lake Tribune
"The voice is authentic and the historical atmosphere, the strangeness of being in that tight-knit community, that near-theocracy, and yet not being a part of it--and all this against the backdrop of a true wilderness, of place and spirit—is very effectively created. I felt I was inside that history."
— John Vernon, Author of The Last Canyon
