Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A feud dating back to the Civil War threatens Doc Beck's future… Doctor Rebekah LaRoche is finally home in Wyoming—but trouble waits for her in spades, and a slim chance to return to the Omaha Indian Reservation grows slimmer when she’s drawn into a feud between two powerful ranchers. Glenn Butler and Dean Wallace hate each other’s guts and have pitted their offspring against each other since birth. But it’s Butler’s daughter, Lilly, and her disgrace at law school that has Rebekah scrambling for answers. Rebekah wrote the letter of recommendation that helped Lilly be accepted into the college, and if she can’t untangle the scandal and its connection to this powerful rivalry, she is doomed with another black mark on her professional reputation. U.S. Senator Jeffrey Harris wants Rebekah to stay out of the young state’s troubles if she hopes to have his help. But how can she stay out of something that’s entangled her, threatening the last chance she has to return to her people? *** About the Doc Beck Westerns series: Of Omaha Indian and French descent, 34-year-old Doctor Rebekah LaRoche goes by Doc Beck, which gets her foot in doors before her patients and patrons realize she’s a woman. A sophisticated spitfire with remarkable people skills, a foot in the door is all Rebekah needs to do her job. Traveling the West in the 1890s to lend aid and cure the sick, Doc Beck finds herself solving problems and setting straight more than just broken bones. But the work doesn’t fill the longing in her heart for a place to truly call home—and someone beyond herself to believe in.

Download or read book The Fruited Plain written by Walter Ebeling and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-11-10 with total page 565 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some consider American agriculture as one of the wonders of the modern world. In this book Walter Ebeling tells its story. Professor Ebeling grew up on a farm, loves the soil, and had the good fortune to have been closely associated with the land in all its aspects. Beginning with a brief history of why and how preagricultural peoples changed from hunters and gatherers and eventually became tillers of the soil, Professor Ebeling then deals with the seven geographic regions of the United States--from the East to California--giving the history and present status of agriculture for each reason. Although the main thrust of The Fruited Plain is the drama, romance, and excitement of the American agricultural experience, Professor Ebeling is concerned with the environmental, ecological, and sociological aspects of agriculture and its supporting industries. He discusses environmental problems in America that began when the Indians' "shifting" agriculture (allowing for long periods of soil restoration) was replaced by the white man's permanent agriculture. He examines the modern technology for a successful and environmentally viable permanent agriculture and how it can be implemente on a much larger scale. The questions asked--and answered--are what are the principal environmental problems? What is being, and/or can be done about soil erosion? Scarcity of water? Urban encroachment on agricultural lands? What directions can be taken by benevolent technology? Does technology have remedies for land that is susceptible to water erosion and loss of topsoil? Likewise, pollution and environmental degradation resulting from excessive use of pesticides? Our society much recognize the importance of protecting our agricultural resources, and Professor Ebeling, in this monumental book, gives many suggestions on how to accomplish the sustained utilization of America's great resource--the farmlands.
