The Tenderfoot Bride
Author: Cheryl St. John
Publisher: Harlequin
ISBN: 1426887469
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
A sweet Western romance from the beloved author with “a style reminiscent of LaVyrle Spencer’s earliest books” (Linda Howard, New York Times–bestselling author of The Woman Left Behind). Secrets and lies made poor references, Linnea McConaughy knew. But her survival depended upon keeping her past hidden, especially from her employer, rancher Will Tucker. True, he’d shown her kindness, even tenderness, but could he ever accept her shameful past—and another man’s baby? Will Tucker did not like surprises, and Linnea McConaughy was not the sturdy, past-her-prime widow he’d expected to manage his household. Instead, she was a tiny slip of womanhood desperately seeking a place to belong. Yet much to his growing surprise, that place seemed to be in his home—and his heart! Praise for Cheryl St. John “Cheryl St. John gives testimony to the blessings of family and to the healing powers of love.” —Romantic Times “A warm and loving story.” —Romance Reviews Today

A Tenderfoot In Colorado
Author: Richard Baxter Townshend
Publisher: University Press of Colorado
ISBN: 1457109387
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 301
Book Description
Now back in print, A Tenderfoot in Colorado is R. B. Townshend's classic account of his time in the wild frontier territory known as Colorado. Townshend arrived in the Rockies in 1869, fresh from Cambridge, England, with $300 in his pockets. He found friends among some of Colorado's more colorful characters, people who taught him much about life on the frontier. Jake Chisolm taught him how to shoot after rescuing him from two men preparing to skin him at poker. Wild Bill of Colorado taught him the meaning of "the drop" and warned him against wearing a gun in town unless he wanted trouble. Capturing the Western vernacular more accurately than any other writer, Townshend includes vivid details of life in the West, where he killed a buffalo, prospected for gold, and was present for the official government conference with the Ute Indians after gold was discovered on their lands.

Category : Sports & Recreation

Pages : 393
Book Description
Guy Grieve's life was going nowhere - trapped in a job he hated, commuting 2,000 miles a month and up to his neck in debt. But he dreamed of escaping it all to live alone in one of the wildest, most remote places on earth - Alaska. And just when he'd given up hope, the dream came true. Suddenly Guy was thrown into one of the harshest environments in the world, miles from the nearest human being and armed with only the most basic equipment. And he soon found - whether building a log cabin from scratch, hunting, ice fishing or of course dodging bears in the buff - that life in the wilderness was anything but easy... Part Ray Mears, part Bill Bryson, CALL OF THE WILD is the gripping story of how a mild-mannered commuter struggled with the elements - and himself - and eventually learned the ways of the wild.
