This new edition, with a smart new package and an afterword by acclaimed author Donna Tartt, will bring this masterpiece to an even broader audience. From a writer of true cult status, this is an American classic through and through.

True Grit is eccentric, cool, straight, and unflinching, like Mattie herself. Marshal, by her side, Mattie pursues the homicide into Indian Territory. With the one-eyed Rooster Cogburn, the meanest available U.S. Mattie leaves home to avenge her father's blood. It tells the story of Mattie Ross, who is just fourteen years of age when a coward going by the name of Tom Chaney shoots her father down in Fort Smith, Arkansas, and robs him of his life, his horse, and $150 in cash money. True Grit is his most famous novel-first published in 1968, and the basis for the movie of the same name starring John Wayne.
