Book Description
In this comprehensive study of a common deity found in the ancient Near East as well as many other cultures, Green brings together evidence from the worlds of myth, iconography, and literature in an attempt to arrive at a new synthesis regarding the place of the Storm-god. He finds that the Storm-god was the force primarily responsible for three major areas of human concern: (1) religious power because he was the ever-dominant environmental force upon which peoples depended for their very lives; (2) centralized political power; and (3) continuously evolving sociocultural processes, which typically were projected through the Storm-god’s attendants. Green traces these motifs through the Mesopotamian, Anatolian, Syrian, and Levantine regions; with regard to the latter, he argues that Yahweh of the Bible can be identified as a storm-god, though certain unique characteristics came to be associated with him: he was the Creator of all that is created and the self-existing god who needs no other.

As the golden spike is driven in and the transcontinental railroad is officially finished, Sam Storm finds himself jobless - and attracted to a high-society beauty named Catherine. Thus Sam sets out to launch a daring business scheme involving firewater, stolen horses, and a dangerous journey that will make him rich enough to impress Catherine's doting father. When he returns to Salt Lake, however, Sam finds that wooing the lovely Catherine may be more difficult than just impressing her father. Nor can he forget the ravaged Shoshone village he passed through on his journey and the horrific scene he saw there. And when strange events begin to fit together to reveal a sinister plot, Sam must once again set off on an adventure - this time to discover the truth, and eventually to save the woman he loves.
