Introduction by Terry Tempest Williams Afterword by T. H. Watkins Called a “magnificently crafted story . . . brimming with wisdom” by Howard Frank Mosher in The Washington Post Book World, Crossing to Safety has, since its publication in 1987, established itself as one of the greatest and most cherished American novels of the twentieth century. Tracing the lives, loves, and aspirations of two couples who move between Vermont and Wisconsin, it is a work of quiet majesty, deep compassion, and powerful insight into the alchemy of friendship and marriage.

"I reread this after 15 yrs or so. I love this book! He writes about two couples and how they change through the years. READ THIS BOOK!"
Karen Ryan
"I was so moved by so much of this book. There were parts that got really slow for me - the writing was really intricate and it probably wasn't the best book to read on my beach vacation. I really loved these characters though and I'm definitely interested in reading other books by Wallace Stegner."
