Casing the Promised Land is a novel written by the American novelist Caleb Carr.[1] Published by Harper & Row in 1980, it was Carr's first published book, having already published several non-fiction newspaper and magazine pieces.
Acknowledging the amateur nature of the work in 1999, 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."
