Reception
Booklist, reviewing Best Shot in the West, wrote "The writing makes little use of hyperbole, allowing the natural drama of horse-roping contests, a kidnapping by a Native American tribe, and driving cattle through a fierce lightning storm to hold readers' attention. .. The unique art fills highly realistic figures (some even seem to be taken from old photos) and backgrounds with sprays of grainy color that make the story seem like it's coated in a patina of genuine history." and the School Library Journal wrote "Exciting and picturesque, Nat Love's life makes for a great graphic novel."
Best Shot in the West has also been reviewed by The Horn Book Magazine, Library Media Connection, Voice of Youth Advocates, Publishers Weekly, Kirkus Reviews, and the Tennessee Tribune.
It is a 2012 BCCB Blue Ribbon Book, and a 2013 Bank Street CBC Best Children's Book of the Year.
