Book excerpt: This American historical novel “takes you over as you read it, invading your daydreams, lodging its cadences in your brain, summoning you back to the page” (The Washington Post). Bucking the Sun is the saga of the Duff family, homesteaders driven from the Montana bottomland to work on one of the New Deal’s most audacious projects—the damming of the Missouri River. Through the story of each family member—a wrathful father, a mettlesome mother, and three very different sons, and the memorable women they marry—Ivan Doig conveys a sense of time and place that is at once epic in scope and rich in detail. “Vintage Doig.” —Publishers Weekly “An intense family drama. This richly detailed narrative offers comedy, passion, and adventure.” —Library Journal “An intriguing chapter . . . in the history of the West.” —Booklist “Doig’s real achievement is to chronicle—with empathy and precise, lyrical authority, down to the last load of gravel hauled in a sturdy Ford truck—the magnificent Fort Peck project and the desperate times out of which it arose.” —Kirkus Reviews “Ivan Doig is one of the best we’ve got—a muscular and exceedingly good writer.” —E. Annie Proulx author of Accordion Crimes and The Shipping News “The premier writer of the American West.” —Chicago Sun-Times “As tangled a web of familial and psychosexual rivalries as one is apt to encounter this side of Hamlet or The Brothers Karamazov.” —Entertainment Weekly “Doig has achieved his most adroit blend of fact and fancy in what is perhaps his best book since This House of Sky. . . . fact and anecdote are woven into the text with a light and often humorous touch.” —San Francisco Chronicle

Book excerpt: From Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author Lauren Landish comes a hard-riding romance of cowboys who run wild--and the women who tame them... Bull rider James Bennett lives for those eight seconds of exhilaration. A rodeo cowboy in his prime, all he wants out of life is something to straddle. That's why James is feeling a little restless, spending his summer off working his family's ranch. That is, until a spirited and gorgeous veterinarian-in-training shows up and puts the cocky wild boy--and his ego--in place. Though she's a feisty one, James is always up for a challenge. Sophie Stone has to admit it: James Bennett is a checklist of cowboy hotness--ruggedly handsome with piercing blue eyes, a hard-muscled body, and just enough swagger to make her toes curl. She thought she was done with her bad-boy phase, but exceptions must be made. How can Sophie possibly say no to a man who makes her heart buck like a bronco? And when their summer fling comes to an end, how can she possibly say goodbye?

Download or read book Hopalong Cassidy His Wild West Adventures 7 Westerns in One Edition written by Clarence Mulford and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2023-12-22 with total page 1458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This eBook edition of "Hopalong Cassidy & His Wild West Adventures – 7 Westerns in One Edition" has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. Hopalong Cassidy is a cowboy hero created by the author Clarence Mulford, who wrote a series of popular short stories and many novels based on the character. In his early writings, Mulford portrayed the character as rude, dangerous, and rough-talking. He had a wooden leg which caused him to walk with a little "hop", hence the nickname. The character—as played by movie actor William Boyd in films adapted from Mulford's books—was transformed into a clean-cut, sarsaparilla-drinking hero. Sixty-six popular films appeared. The Coming of Cassidy and Others Hopalong Cassidy Bar-20 Days Buck Peters, Ranchman The Bar-20 Three Tex Clarence E. Mulford (1883–1956) created Hopalong Cassidy in 1904 while living in Fryeburg, Maine, and the many short stories and 28 novels were adapted to radio, feature film, television, and comic books, often deviating significantly from the original stories, especially in the character's traits. But more than just writing a very popular series of Westerns, Mulford recreated an entire detailed and authentic world filled with characters drawn from his extensive library research.
