Book Description
Slocum wrangles with a rose that’s red—with blood! Isabel is out to avenge her husband’s murder. Riding a stolen horse, she will no longer place her trust in God, but in the .44 Colt she now carries. Under the guise of Tequila Rosa—a woman of notorious ill-repute—she will ride the vengeance trail until the last rites have been said over the murderous butcher who executed her beloved. Slocum is running a load of guns to Mexico, where firearms are more precious than gold. After riding through a raging sand storm, he meets the beautiful Tequila Rosa—who clearly has eyes for this knight of the desert. So, when Rosa is taken hostage by some very tough outlaws, Slocum heads out to rescue her—even though he may get lost in the blinding clouds of dust. But what those kidnappers don’t realize is that an even fiercer storm is approaching—named Slocum…

Pre-Columbian Foodways
Author: John Staller
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1441904719
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 691
Book Description
The significance of food and feasting to Pre-Columbian Mesoamerican cultures has been extensively studied by archaeologists, anthropologists and art historians. Foodways studies have been critical to our understanding of early agriculture, political economies, and the domestication and management of plants and animals. Scholars from diverse fields have explored the symbolic complexity of food and its preparation, as well as the social importance of feasting in contemporary and historical societies. This book unites these disciplinary perspectives — from the social and biological sciences to art history and epigraphy — creating a work comprehensive in scope, which reveals our increasing understanding of the various roles of foods and cuisines in Mesoamerican cultures. The volume is organized thematically into three sections. Part 1 gives an overview of food and feasting practices as well as ancient economies in Mesoamerica. Part 2 details ethnographic, epigraphic and isotopic evidence of these practices. Finally, Part 3 presents the metaphoric value of food in Mesoamerican symbolism, ritual, and mythology. The resulting volume provides a thorough, interdisciplinary resource for understanding, food, feasting, and cultural practices in Mesoamerica.
