Praise for William Gough:
"Gough displays an enviable narrative wizardry in this top-notch comic adventure. His corrupt crew of characters are all rendered in earthy, vibrant tones, and his pairing of Red and Karen, a Boston journalist, stands as an inspired piece of casting.... His ability to bring his wild settings into a sharp focus is never less than uncanny. "The Last White Man In Panama" is virtually impossible to put down." Peter L. Robertson - Chicago Tribune
". ...a delightful send-up of everything from mercenary magazine fantasies to film noir. Read it to relish the old-movie touches or simply follow the action to save America. It works either way. " Margaret Cannon...The Globe & Mail
"Many readers will find their knuckles growing white as the story crashes toward its...thoroughly gripping conclusion." The Ottawa Citizen
"On one level the book is a thriller, on another a delightful comedy. Above all it's an entertaining novel..." The Hamilton Spectator.
