As you might expect of a Western that's about running away in the hopes of never having to fight another day, "Welcome to Hard Times" is not very exciting, but it's not altogether uninteresting. Doctorow is more concerned with the roots of community, how it evolves into civilization and how it eventually declines and falls.
