About the Author
Terry Courtright tells stories that reflect his life, from the clear waters he fished as a boy in the High Sierras to the deserts of the Southwest he walked as a man. Fishing and basketball dominated his life up through college when advertising and agency work got him through his early career. As he developed in the advertising world, he realized that the truth did not always exist in media. And that he needed more than a client /creator relationship to fill his intellectual pursuits. He continued to write columns, and ad campaigns to make a living but his serious material told fact as fiction, truth as parables, and philosophy as poetry.

I offer this brief review of TERMINAL EXPOSURE as a close friend of the author and a student of literature and Mexican culture. Terry Courtright’s work is compelling, exciting, and engaging. It’s an adventure story with plot twists, suspense and interesting characters that play out on the southern border. This fast-paced crime thriller ventures into the world of Magical Realism where the supernatural mixes with everyday events. Courtright researches and writes about a wide variety of subjects, from dog breeding to political analyses. Having read much of his writing I will always consider Terminal Exposure as his seminal work… “Fiction it is-Facts it contains…”

I’ve hunted and fished with Terry for the 25 years from Montana to Arizona. In Between Square Buttes, he guides you on a wonderful journey through the Montana that he found when he moved there in 1975 – wide open spaces, welcoming ranchers, robust bird populations. Terry’s Montana is fading fast. I call it the Texification of Montana – non-resident bird dog guides buying up access, out of state land owners nailing up "No Trespassing" admonitions, flotillas of plastic drift boats clogging the state’s wonderful trout rivers. In spite of these trends, Terry's Montana is still among the last best places.
Terry has been kind enough to share with me the last best places left in his repertoire. Enjoy the journey with Terry. You’ll love the walk. I have.
