Casing the Promised Land
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Casing the Promised Land is a novel written by the American novelist Caleb Carr. Published by HarperCollins in 1980, it was Carr's first published work. Acknowledging the amateur nature of the work, in 1999, Caleb Carr posted the following notice on Amazon.com: "I am the author of this book. It has a few good scenes, but is essentially "roman à clef" nonsense that every writer has to get out of his system early on. Do yourself a favor and read ANYTHING else I've written (you'll be doing me a favor, too). Forgive the follies of youth."
