Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Slim Silver, a top hand, aims to develop a large ranch of his own in the dry country of northeastern Wyoming. Into this area comes a young recent University of Chicago graduate, Jim Carlson. Carlson plans to take a break on his Uncle's homestead, before selecting his objectives for life. However, Carlson is asked to take care of his Uncle John's homestead for the summer, so that his uncle can take his family back east for a while to an easier life, and also earn some needed money. As observed by Jim Carlson, Slim's friendship with a new western couple, the Blanchards (particularly Teresa Blanchard), leads Slim to oppose the major rancher in the area, Butch Hogan, who wants the water from a spring on the Blanchard homestead. Complicating the interactions, Slim also works off and on as one of Hogan's cow hands. Hogan owns the Lazy Bear Lodge Ranch, by far the largest ranch in the area. The Carlson homestead is just across the Belle Fourche River from the Hogan spread and northeast of the Blanchard's homestead as well as Slim's. As such Carlson is in the middle of the story. In this dry country, south of the Bear Lodge Mountains of Wyoming, water is the main issue. Hogan brings in a sheep herd which causes him to be increasingly short of water. The advantage of sheep is that, unlike cows, they will eat almost anything, but they can also strip the country almost bare. As the pressure for water increases, the Blanchards as well as two Lazy Bear Lodge hands, are murdered. Initial evidence points to Slim as the murderer. Slim is indicted and almost lynched, before Jim Carlson and Fred Hardy, Butch's tough but honest foreman, see that justice is finally realized. At the end, Carlson has grown from a naive college graduate to a real western man who ends up settling in the country south of the Bear Lodge. Slim is acquitted, but because of all the events, is never the same.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rising from the grassy floor of the Great Plains of western South Dakota and northeastern Wyoming are the Black Hills, home of legend and mystery. Known to the Lakota Indians as Paha Sapa, these hills include the Bear Lodge Mountains and Devils Tower-Mato Tipila, or Bear Lodge. The work read at the Bearlodge Writers' table draws not only from this ancient landscape, but reaches beyond it around the nation, around the world, and into fantasy. The Bearlodge Writers (BLW) have been meeting twice a month in Sundance, Wyoming, since 1979. The Hills have drawn us from different directions, and we come from different vocations, as well. But we are all writers and aspire to contribute to the world of literature. We encourage and support one another in our writing endeavors, help each other improve our work, share information, and provide workshops and writing retreats. By drawing on the fine-tuned balance within the group, and with deep respect for one another's work, we produce poetry, essays, articles, columns, novels, nonfiction books, and short stories. Our published work ripples outward-regionally, nationally, internationally. Here, in the shadow of the Bear Lodge, we live close to the elements, letting nature and the land nurture us and settle into our bones. Through the pleasure and power of words, we discover joy, beauty, sanity and serenity, guidance, deep connection . . . and sometimes triumph. Chocolate and red pens! Bear Lodge writers wield both with good cheer and skill as they support each other in their writing. Meeting monthly for more than forty years, members of Bear Lodge Writers have been widely published, spreading their work to readers everywhere. In these pages you will find writing "from Tiananmen to Vilnius," from Maine to the Medicine Bow, deep as roots can burrow and high as mountains and eagles can soar. Their voices echo and sing, piercing the fog of our daily lives, bringing new hymns of entertainment, reflection, grief, healing, and contentment. Gaydell Collier, one of the group's founders, to whom this collection is dedicated, would be proud. Add Spirit of the Bear Lodge to your library; read it with gratitude, joy, and hope. -Linda M. Hasselstrom, Gathering from the Grassland, High Plains Press, and other titles. Dedicated to Gaydell Collier, a founding member of Bearlodge Writers, Spirit of the Bear: A Bearlodge Writers Anthology is a collaboratively-edited anthology that is both gracefully and thoughtfully organized-filled with carefully selected and well-crafted pieces. In richly detailed imagery and finely-wrought language, the works in this anthology reveal a strong connection to questions of place and community. A testament to writing community and writing in community, this book brings to beautiful fruition the presence, talent, collaboration, and craft of Bearlodge Writers. This anthology is a celebration of individual voices working cooperatively to further their writerly talents in unison, and it is a powerful and engaging collection. -Lee Ann Roripaugh, Author of Tsunami vs. the Fukushima 50

Book excerpt: Scientific analyses of the geology, metallogeny, and mineralization of gold, silver and other high-value elements in the western USATechnical details on working mines, exploration results, new depositsPresentations produced with the United States Geological Survey, Society of Economic GeologistsTwo-volume book set printed in full color with full-text searchable CD-ROM Produced under the auspices of the Geological Society of Nevada and published every five years, this two-volume book of peer-reviewed papers focuses on the geological analysis of ore-rich deposits in the western United States, especially ones containing gold and other high-value elements. Hundreds of stratigraphic, lithographic, remote-sensing and core sample examples are presented, particularly of areas likely to host Carlin-type gold deposits. The two volumes contain a wealth of data on specifically named mines, as well as technical information on high-potential areas for exploration. The book is profusely illustrated with full-color maps, photographs and charts for geology and mining engineering. A searchable CD accompanies the book and includes the full text of papers from the printed book, as well as abstracts and information from poster sessions not found in the printed book. Chapters in the text are fully refereed versions of presentations originally delivered at a symposium supported by the Geological Society of Nevada, along with the United States Geological Survey, Society of Economic Geologists and the Nevada Bureau of Mines. Sample key words: metallogeny, gold, epithermal ore, magmatism, Carlin trend, square array void mapping (SAVM), porphyry copper, tungsten, orogeny, lithogeochemistry, 3-D resistivity and modeling, fault-surface mapping, airborne electromagnetics and more. *The CD-ROM displays figures and illustrations in articles in full color along with a title screen and main menu screen.

Download or read book Crazy Horse written by The Edward Clown Family and published by Gibbs Smith. This book was released on 2016-09-06 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A family account of the life of Tashunke Witko, their great Sioux relative . . . For the first time, the Clown family members tell their oral history.”—True West The Edward Clown family, nearest living relatives to the Lakota war leader, presents the family tales and memories told to them about their famous grandfather. In many ways the oral history differs from what has become the standard and widely accepted biography of Crazy Horse. The family clarifies the inaccuracies and shares their story about the past, including what it means to them to be Lakota, the family genealogy, the life of Crazy Horse and his motivations, his death, and why they chose to keep quiet with their knowledge for so long before finally deciding to tell the truth as they know it. This book is a compelling addition to the body of works about Crazy Horse and the complicated and often conflicting events of that time period in American History. “For the first time the first-hand account of Crazy Horse is told . . . The stories were faithfully passed down through the generations . . . It includes Crazy Horse’s account of the last moments of Custer and the near-killing of Maj. Marcus Reno by Crazy Horse’s father.”—Capital Journal “After many years of keeping quiet, the family of Lakota warrior Crazy Horse decided to tell their story of his life and legacy . . . The truth behind the history of Crazy Horse—an iconic Native American warrior—until recently has been kept hidden for more than a century.”—The Monroe News
