Explanation and Analysis:

All the Pretty Horses is a Western novel written by Cormac McCarthy. It is the first book in Cormac McCarthy's Border Trilogy, which (as its name suggests) follows cowboys in the region around the Mexico-United States border. It was written for a popular audience and was also McCarthy's first widely successful novel. While it functions well as a standalone work, McCarthy later returns to John Grady Cole (the novel's protagonist) in Cities of the Plain, the final installment of the trilogy.
