How long has it been since you fell in love with a book?Dominique Laxalt was sixteen when he left the French Pyrenees for America. He became a sheepherder in the Nevada desert and nearby hills of the Sierra. Like all his fellow Basque immigrants, Dominique dreamed of someday returning to the land of his beginnings. Most Basques never made the journey back, but Dominique finally did return for a visit with family and friends. Sweet Promised Land is the story of that trip, told by his son Robert, who accompanied him to the pastoral mountain village of Tardets in France. Dominique came home victorious, the adventurer who had conquered the unknown and found his fortune in the New World. He told of his life in America, the hardships and challenges, and began to realize that he had changed since his departure from Tardets. By the end of the visit, he knew with certainty where he belonged.During the past fifty years, this book has become a classic in Western American literature, still beloved by the BasqueAmerican community. In celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the books publication, western literature scholar Ann Ronald wrote a new foreword, discussing the book in the context of American and Nevada literature.
