Soon to be a TV Series on AMC starring Pierce Brosnan and co-written by Philipp Meyer.

Now in paperback, the critically acclaimed, New York Times bestselling epic, a saga of land, blood, and power that follows the rise of one unforgettable Texas family from the Comanche raids of the 1800s to the oil booms of the 20th century.

Part epic of Texas, part classic coming-of-age story, part unflinching examination of the bloody price of power, The Son is a gripping and utterly transporting novel that maps the legacy of violence in the American west with rare emotional acuity, even as it presents an intimate portrait of one family across two centuries.

Eli McCullough is just twelve-years-old when a marauding band of Comanche storm his Texas homestead and brutally murder his mother and sister, taking him as a captive. Despite their torture and cruelty, Eli--against all odds--adapts to life with the Comanche, learning their ways, their language, taking on a new name, finding a place as the adopted son of the chief of the band, and fighting their wars against not only other Indians, but white men, too-complicating his sense of loyalty, his promised vengeance, and his very understanding of self. But when disease, starvation, and westward expansion finally decimate the Comanche, Eli is left alone in a world in which he belongs nowhere, neither white nor Indian, civilized or fully wild.

Deftly interweaving Eli's story with those of his son, Peter, and his great-granddaughter, JA, The Son deftly explores the legacy of Eli's ruthlessness, his drive to power, and his life-long status as an outsider, even as the McCullough family rises to become one of the richest in Texas, a ranching-and-oil dynasty of unsurpassed wealth and privilege.

Harrowing, panoramic, and deeply evocative, The Son is a fully realized masterwork in the greatest tradition of the American canon-an unforgettable novel that combines the narrative prowess of Larry McMurtry with the knife edge sharpness of Cormac McCarthy.

Works perfectly!
Size: S
This clamp works perfectly! Holds the siphon tube securely. When you buy one of these clamps, measure the inside siphon tube. Not the outside tube the inner tube slides in. This was a bit confusing, but I got the right one and I'm happy with it!

Works as intended.
Size: S
The fact that this holds the racking cane in place is fantastic. It is like having another set of hands However, I would have liked to see a version, or additional piece of hardware that could be used to keep the cane from moving around so much and to keep it tilted toward the direction the carboy is tilted. But nonetheless, the unit does what it is intended.

Small clip, big help
Size: S
I've been making wine for 3 years now. Due to a cramped work area I use about 20 carboys which makes for lots of siphoning each time I need to re-rack. This small clip has made the process so much less hassle. It clips nicely to the 3, 5 and 6 gallon glass carboys that I use. It's tight enough on the siphon tube to prevent slippage. Pro-tip: Once your siphon is started, slide the clip around the rim of the carboy to position it under the siphon hose. This will keep the siphon tube fairly straight up and down in the carboy. Otherwise, the weight and pressure of the hose will cause the tube to not be vertical and you'll miss a larger portion of your beverage in the re-rack than you would if the tube were perfectly vertical.

Hold the tube. Save the world.
Size: S
Very great item. The printing resolution is very good and you can tell from the rigidity that it was not sparsely filled. Helps holds siphons onto my 5gal glass carboy and plastic bucket. I also used it to weigh down my siphon tube for a makeshift blow off tube during fermentation. Would recommend.

Very small
Size: S
I tried to use it for something it wasn’t advertised for so it’s partially my fault. I tried to use to hold wa washer discharge hose. The specs don’t say the size. This thing is tiny… it really is just for a tubing… and when I tried to return it they wanted to charge me almost as much as the original price… not worth it unless you know it will work
