Download or read book Hoist a Cold One written by Melody Groves and published by University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throwing a few drinks back at the bar is a timeless tale of humanity. In the American Old West, this tale played out in ramshackle huts and stylish establishments alike in some of the most unforgiving terrain imaginable. While the legendary Crystal Palace in Tombstone, Arizona, had little in common with the tent cities that sprang up in Leadville, Colorado, and Silver City, New Mexico, one common feature was the bars--constructed of planks of mahogany, cherrywood, or rosewood. These bars were often hauled across hundreds of miles of rugged terrain to arrive in various cities, where they would support the elbows, chins, and drinks of those who sought to quench their thirst. From the Grand Hotel in Bisbee to Rosa's Cantina in El Paso, Myke and Melody Groves tell the story of the front and back bars of twenty-five establishments in Arizona, Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado through a combination of historic background and photographs. This lively travelogue, complete with driving directions, will inspire visitors to the West's old mining camps, railroad towns, and ranching centers to stop in and belly up to the bar.
Download or read book Killing a Cold One written by Joseph Heywood and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-04-01 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every fall in northern Michigan brings a spate of dogman sightings. A radio DJ’s invention, the dogman was created as an attention-getting joke. But millions of Michiganders believe in angels and vampires, werewolves, Bigfoot . . . and the dogman. Late summer, the horribly mutilated bodies of two Native American girls are found in a tent in a remote campground in the Huron Mountains. Grady Service, who wants nothing more than to return to patrolling his beloved Mosquito Wilderness, is called into the case. Strange animal tracks are found, mayhem ensues, a bloody trail of victims begins to accumulate, and the governor, in a political panic, and on her way out of office, orders Grady to hunt down and eliminate the killer--on her office’s dime. Grady Service does not believe in Easter bunnies, Santa Claus, or dogmen, and the "monster" hunt that unfolds in Killing a Cold One builds to a violent finish in some of the Upper Peninsula’s harshest and deadliest terrain. Joseph Heywood's legendary woods cop is called upon to use all of his investigative skills to sort fantasy from reality in order to do what the governor wants.

Book excerpt: Life is a Trial, says Henderson. Like he knows S about S. Every year on March 1 comes the Alive Day of Roberto (“Robot”) Larch. Down on the Rez, Jim Fence still walks the mesa—or does he? And Snap and Henry B. are way up there on Tuesday Island, like hummingbirds trapped (as if by clear glass) along the Pacific Coast. “What goes around comes around”—Daniel Boone (among others—we won’t say who—long dead). AND THEN— The saga of The Haunted Refrigerator has not easily been contained (try it sometime). Book One is called In; Book Two Bifurcated Proceedings; Hoist a Few Cold Ones is Book Three and not the traditional place to start. Yet here we are. Our advice? Read the first book first, the second second, and this one last. Or not. Like we know S
Download or read book Brewology written by Mark Brewer and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-06-23 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Mark Brewer explains in his introduction, "Beer is one of the oldest beverages known to man . . . and woman! In fact women were the first brewers since one of their primary responsibilities involved cooking. Years ago beer was considered a food as well as a drink. Beer provided many of the calories needed for one's daily diet. Dating back all the way to the fifth millennium BC, beer was recorded by the ancient Egyptian scribes, who also created an extra hieroglyph specifically for “brewer.” Historians tell us that beer was used as a method to compensate laborers who were building the pyramids. Perhaps more importantly, if an Egyptian man offered a woman a sip of his brew, they were betrothed." Starting with an introduction to the history of beer, this A–Z dictionary takes a humorous looks at the various types of beer and common verbiage associated with it while educating the reader in the process. Covering everything from Abbey to Aging, Hops to Head Retention, and Skunky to Stout, Mark Brewer's Brewology is perfect for beer lovers everywhere.
