Book Description
The book is a fictional account of a man that is an avid patriot and who sees himself as a defender of the President of the United States. He formulates a plan to assassinate political figures who oppose his beloved President. He develops an unusual and ingenious plan on how to eliminate the political foes of the President. He carries out his plans with remarkable success. Although his plans are impromptu and spontaneous, they are totally satisfying and ego boosting and provide an unexpected side benefit, with each victim. The balance of power in Washington swings to the benefit of the President. The story unfolds around a man that has allowed himself to be overly engrossed in the politics of the day and who has become steadfastly biased in his opinions. He allows his deep-seated anger toward the opposition to bring him to a dark place, in which he wished death to those that impose their ideology upon him and especially those political figures that excoriate and attack his President with unrelentless false accusations. His extreme hate leads him to live out his fantasies of death and vengeance by formulating an extremely unique way of assassination. He does it with a simple but highly toxic ingenious handshake. His murderous ways go undetected, even to those that shake his hand and are at that welcoming moment, meeting their death.

Book Description
A twenty-first-century corporation invades the domain of a warlike sixteenth-century Scottish clan in this "brilliantly imagined" time-travel adventure (Philip Pullman). The miraculous invention of a Time Tube has given Great Britain's mighty FUP corporation unprecedented power, granting it unlimited access to the rich natural resources of the past. Opening a portal into sixteenth-century Scotland, the company has sent representatives back five hundred years to deal with the Sterkarms, a lawless barbarian clan that has plundered both sides of the English-Scottish border for generations. Among the first of the company's representatives to arrive from the future, young anthropologist Andrea Mitchell finds herself strangely drawn to this primitive tribe of raiders and pillagers who, not surprisingly, view her as magical. As translator and liaison, she becomes enmeshed in the personal lives of these proud, savage folk, developing an especially strong emotional bond with Per, the handsome son of the ruthless Sterkarm chieftain, Toorkild. But the Sterkarms' welcome does not extend to the FUP corporate despoilers from the future--and soon a fragile agreement between the untamable Scots and the interloping "Elves" begins to crumble. Suddenly war looms on the horizon, and when treachery on both sides ignites a firestorm of violence, Andrea will have to choose where her loyalties truly lie: with her coldhearted employers or with the barbarous kinfolk of the man she has come to love. A winner of the Guardian Fiction Prize and a finalist for the Carnegie Medal, called "enthralling" by Philip Pullman, the author of the His Dark Materials novels, Susan Price's Sterkarm Handshake is a masterful blend of historical and science fiction critics have called "dazzling," "exciting," "memorable," "thought provoking," and "a thumping good page-turner."

Book Description
Framing her recollections with the passage of cranes over her South Dakota ranch, Daum writes about the difficulties of living in a remote place--a fickle river, rattlesnakes, hospitals too far away to be much use, social isolation--but also what keeps her there--the cranes, the rhythms of the land & seasons, her horses, the bonds of family. Unflinching and understated, Daum breaks the silence that for too long has marked (and marred) the lives of western women. Her essays start in the present (she raises sport horses on a piece of what was a 13,000 acre spread) and cycle back through her childhood, with stories about her father, blizzards, a coyote, the White River that whipsaws their land, the differences between people, and the artifacts left by others who have tried to scrape a living out of the land. With humor and insight, her essays touch on different aspects of rural life and convey her vision for a good life in the west.
