Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

First published more than fifty years ago, The Big Sky is the first of A. B. Guthrie, Jr.'s epic adventure novels of America's vast frontier. The Big Sky introduces the young Dick Summers and the unforgettable hero Boone Caudill. Under Summers's tutelage, Caudill becomes a powerful White Savage, an untamed life force that only the beautiful daughter of a Blackfoot chief would dare to love. The forerunner to western writers such as Cormac McCarthy and Larry McMurtry, A. B. Guthrie was the first to give us an unforgettable portrait of a spacious land and a unique way of life and reveal why the phrase the big sky has become a part of our heritage.

"A Mariner book."
