Coulee the Growing Years by J. C. Cantle is a novel set in Billings, Montana, and surrounding country, including Northwestern Wyoming. Formed in the mid 1950’s when your dollar was worth something and time and speed were much slower. The newest technology was television which for America began a cultural and value change. The Korean War had only ended a few years earlier; the G.I. Bill enabled those that wished to further their education to do so. Peace and prosperity flourished. It is a story about two brothers, Kipp, a high school teenager who is enamored by Native American culture and hot rod cars. Dakk, his older brother, having graduated high school, is trying to find what he is going to do with his life now that he is an adult. His love is horses and the cowboy way of life but is unsure that he wants to pursue it for the rest of his life. Both boys are now entering the passage of adulthood. To both, this is the season for the discovery of love, sex, danger and exploration. They discover growing into men the hard way, by getting into trouble and making mistakes, thus learning from them. As time grows on, each finds his fate in life.
