Book Description
Rescuing Whiskey's Salvation is a humorous sweet romance tied up in a nontraditional western cozy. Cosmetic heiress, Evie Mae Stockton, decides to open her "dead" uncles shelter in Whiskey, Texas because she's tired of the glitz and glamour. Her heart pulls her away from everything she's known, which causes her stubborness to kick in. Wanting to help all people out, she must organize the shelter's grand opening, which means dealing with the finances and repairs on a shelter that's been somewhat neglected for the past seven years. The Whiskey townsfolk are thrilled with the news and offer their assistance... assistance Evie feels is not needed. After all, she's the one to do the sheltering, not vice versa. But Whiskey's favorite local cowboy and land developer, Griff Bryant, has other ideas for it. And so does Whiskey's mayor. As Evie and Griff get closer, the shelter's invaded by a troupe of clowns. Clowns that Evie just so happens to be deathly scared of. But these clowns aren't just any troupe of clowns, but one in particular just so happened to save Griff's life long ago. Lucky for the clowns, Evie's stubborness to keep her promise to her uncle kicks in, so instead of shooing them away, she welcomes them into her shelter. But the clowns daily presence in full costume and their antics way on her thoughts and never seem to let her fear fade away causing her to second guess the decision of letting them stay, almost to the brink of turning them out, but the mayor unwittingly distracts Evie from the clowns when he plans a takeover of the shelter via eminent domain. As a member of the mayor's revitalization committee, Griff must decide now who needs the shelter more. Whiskey's mayor? Evie and the townsfolk? Or possibly the Barleyshot Distillery? Knowing the cowboy could destroy her future, will Evie be able to save the shelter herself or will her stubborness hog tie her ability to accept help and make the right decision? Will her blossoming love with Griff survive RESCUING WHISKEY'S SALVATION?

Book Description
Owen Wister invented the Western novel with The Virginian, and that work and this collection of stories prove that, although many have gone after him, no one has ever topped him in skill and enduring appeal. Wister saw the story of the West as a collision of centuries, with the Stone Age, the Middle Ages, and the modern world coming together to form a new place and a new people. Wister said of this collection, "These stories are about Indians and soldiers and events west of the Missouri. They belong to the past . . . but you will find some of those ancient surviving centuries in them if you take my view." ø Here are unforgettable characters: Specimen Jones, the taciturn and capable rider from an unknown past, who has no use for fools and even less for bullies; General Crook and his men, who do the Government?s dirty work on the frontier and get no thanks for it; and unregenerate Rebels and Union veterans in an uneasy frontier political alliance.

Book Description
New York Times Bestseller • Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize • An Oprah's Book Club Selection “Powerful . . . [Kingsolver] has with infinitely steady hands worked the prickly threads of religion, politics, race, sin and redemption into a thing of terrible beauty.” —Los Angeles Times Book Review The Poisonwood Bible, now celebrating its 25th anniversary, established Barbara Kingsolver as one of the most thoughtful and daring of modern writers. Taking its place alongside the classic works of postcolonial literature, it is a suspenseful epic of one family's tragic undoing and remarkable reconstruction over the course of three decades in Africa. The story is told by the wife and four daughters of Nathan Price, a fierce, evangelical Baptist who takes his family and mission to the Belgian Congo in 1959. They carry with them everything they believe they will need from home, but soon find that all of it—from garden seeds to Scripture—is calamitously transformed on African soil. The novel is set against one of the most dramatic political chronicles of the twentieth century: the Congo's fight for independence from Belgium, the murder of its first elected prime minister, the CIA coup to install his replacement, and the insidious progress of a world economic order that robs the fledgling African nation of its autonomy. Against this backdrop, Orleanna Price reconstructs the story of her evangelist husband's part in the Western assault on Africa, a tale indelibly darkened by her own losses and unanswerable questions about her own culpability. Also narrating the story, by turns, are her four daughters—the teenaged Rachel; adolescent twins Leah and Adah; and Ruth May, a prescient five-year-old. These sharply observant girls, who arrive in the Congo with racial preconceptions forged in 1950s Georgia, will be marked in surprisingly different ways by their father's intractable mission, and by Africa itself. Ultimately each must strike her own separate path to salvation. Their passionately intertwined stories become a compelling exploration of moral risk and personal responsibility.

Book Description
If there was ever a "ring-tailed roarer" of the backwoods of New Mexico, he was Quentin Hulse (1926-2002). Hulse lived and worked most of his life at the bottom of Canyon Creek in the Gila River country of southwestern New Mexico, but his reputation spread far and wide. His western image appeared on a tourist postcard and souvenir license plate in the 1950s. Footage of a lion hunt led by Hulse and his hounds appeared on the Men's Channel in 2005, three years after his passing. Hulse grew up primarily in western New Mexico when that ranch and mining country was still remote and raw. At the age of ten he witnessed a point-blank shooting, the culmination of an old-fashioned frontier feud. He followed his parents between mines and towns until his father established a ranch at Canyon Creek. While serving in the navy during World War II, he landed on the bloody beach at Okinawa. After returning from the war, he was shot in a bar near Silver City during a night of carousing. Hulse was most at home in the rugged Gila Wilderness, in which he ranched and guided for fifty years. With compassion and nuance, Nancy Coggeshall tells the compelling biography of a unique western rancher constantly adjusting to the inroads of modernity into his traditional way of life. Drawing on oral history, archival sources, and her personal association with Hulse and the Gila, she brings this unique westerner, and New Mexican, to life.
