Download or read book Horseback Schoolmarm written by Margot Liberty and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2016-07-21 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1953, Margot Pringle, newly graduated from Cornell University, took a job as a teacher in a one-room school in rural eastern Montana, sixty miles southeast of Miles City. “Miss Margot,” as her students called her, would teach at the school for one year. This book is the memoir she wrote then, published here for the first time, under her married name. Filled with humor and affection for her students, Horseback Schoolmarm recounts Liberty’s coming of age as a teacher, as well as what she taught her students. Margot’s school was located on the SH Ranch, whose owner needed a way to retain his hired hands after their children reached school age. Few teachers wanted to work in such remote and primitive circumstances. Margot lived alone in a “teacherage,” hardly more than a closet at one end of the schoolhouse. It had electricity but no phone, plumbing, or running water. She drew water from a well outside. The nearest house was a half-mile away. Margot had a car, but she had to park it so far away, she kept her saddle horse, Orphan Annie, in the schoolyard. Miss Margot started with no experience and no supplies, but her spunk and inventiveness, along with that of her seven students, made the school a success. Evocative of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s school-teaching experiences some eighty years earlier, Horseback Schoolmarm gives readers a firsthand look at an almost forgotten—yet not so distant—way of life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emma Grace is a nurse who is running away from a bad relationship, and Alec is a bull rider running away from himself. She believes in God; he does not. She cannot forgive herself for straying from her relationship with God; he cannot forgive those he believes failed him. After a tragic car accident in which Alec barely survives and his brother Tom is killed, Emma Grace becomes Alec’s nurse. Through the cold winter nights of Alec’s recovery, unspoken feelings develop. Before being discharged from the hospital, Alec learns that Tom’s will has made him the guardian of Tom’s four children provided he settles down and marries; otherwise, the children will have to leave the only home they have ever known. Emma Grace suggests a solution: why doesn’t Alec marry her? Emma Grace relies on her prayer journal and daily walk with God to not only find forgiveness for herself but also the guidance and wisdom she needs in her new roles of wife and mother. Alec returns to his use of anger to cope with the permanent injuries sustained from years of riding bulls and his new roles as husband and father. Despite all odds, these two people, guided by Emma Grace’s faith, learn to forgive themselves, raise a godly family, and find the strong love they’ve been searching for.
Download or read book Nothing to Tell written by Donna Gray and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2012-05-01 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sitting at the kitchen tables of twelve women in their eighties who were born in or immigrated to Montana in the late nineteenth or early twentieth century, between 1982 and 1988 oral historian Donna Gray conducted interviews that reveal a rich heritage. In retelling their life stories, Gray steps aside and allows theses women with supposedly “nothing to tell” to speak for themselves. Pride, nostalgia, and triumph fill a dozen hearts as they realize how remarkable their lives have been and wonder how they did it all. Some of these women grew up in Montana in one-bedroom houses; others traveled in covered wagons before finding a home and falling in love with Montana. These raw accounts bring to life the childhood memories and adulthood experiences of ranch wives who were not afraid to milk a cow or bake in a wooden stove. From raising poultry to raising a family, these women knew the meaning of hard work. Several faced the hardships of family illness, poverty, and early widowhood. Through it all, they were known for their good sense of humor and strong sense of self.
Download or read book Brief History of Cooke City A written by Kelly Suzanne Hartman, with contributions by Cooke City Montana Museum and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2019 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With claims staked, 1870s prospectors at Cooke City patiently waited for adequate transportation to get their ore to market. Eager enough, they named the town in honor of Northern Pacific tycoon Jay Cooke. Ironically, Cooke's influence in creating Yellowstone National Park stunted the growth of the town, as the park blocked any efforts to support a railroad through its borders. For more than sixty years, residents waited for rail until a new economy took hold--tourism. The dreams of the miners still live on in tumble-down shacks and rusty old mining equipment. And the successful vision of entrepreneurs offering rustic relaxation at the doorstep of Yellowstone continues to lure visitors. Historian Kelly Hartman recounts the saga that left hundreds battling for a railroad that never came.

Robbed of her future, she “steals” her Granny’s spinning wheel, stuffs it in a U-Haul with her other things, and heads west. When her car breaks down in Choteau, Montana, she stays. The scenery is amazing and people are friendly. The long winters give her plenty of time to spin, knit, and plan her new business. As spring inches into the northwest, her business is off to a good start and two men want to take her out. Dave Brockman is a confident, well-heeled businessman; Dylan Beck a part-time rancher and unsuccessful artist. She likes them both, but she’s not into dating. First, she needs to stand on her own two feet. Everything is running smoothly until the sheriff shows up on her doorstep to charge her for stealing the spinning wheel. It goes downhill from there. Should she reach out for help, or pack up and run again? A woman’s fiction novel, Leaving Home examines the courage it takes to follow a dream no matter what happens. The intimacy of small-town life, the soothing nature of the fiber arts, and vivid descriptions of life on the Rocky Mountain Front live within its pages. (There is also a knitting pattern!)
