Book excerpt: "Andrews' wonderful Down from the Mountain is deeply informed by personal experience and made all the stronger by his compassion and measured thoughts... Welcome and impressive work." --Barry Lopez Winner of the Banff Mountain Book Competition's Mountain Environment & Natural History Award The story of a grizzly bear named Millie: her life, death, and cubs, and what they reveal about the changing character of the American West The grizzly is one of North America's few remaining large predators. Their range is diminished, but they're spreading across the West again. Descending into valleys where once they were king, bears find the landscape they'd known for eons utterly changed by the new most dominant animal: humans. As the grizzlies approach, the people of the region are wary, at best, of their return. In searing detail, award-winning writer, Montana rancher, and conservationist Bryce Andrews tells us about one such grizzly. Millie is a typical mother: strong, cunning, fiercely protective of her cubs. But raising those cubs--a challenging task in the best of times--becomes ever harder as the mountains change, the climate warms and people crowd the valleys. There are obvious dangers, like poachers, and subtle ones as well, like the corn field that draws her out of the foothills and sets her on a path toward trouble and ruin. That trouble is where Bryce's story intersects with Millie's. It is the heart of Down from the Mountain, a singular drama evoking a much larger one: an entangled, bloody collision between two species in the modern-day West, where the shrinking wilds force man and bear into ever closer proximity.

Book excerpt: FBI Odyssey is the second riveting read in Mike Conti¿s ¿Jelly Bryce¿ trilogy. In part two we follow Detective Delf Bryce as he leaves the Oklahoma City Police Department to become a member of J. Edgar Hoover¿s Federal Bureau of Investigation. America at that time was in a restless, uneasy state. The devastating Great Depression had not yet ended and the world stood on the brink of total war. In addition to the threat posed by the Axis powers in Europe and Asia was the specter of the ¿Red Menace¿¿the Communist movement¿at home. Many Americans, including Hoover, the head of the country¿s fast-growing secret intelligence service, believed the Communists presented a ¿clear and present danger¿ to the United States and its way of life. Initially recruited into the FBI by none other than Hoover himself to battle the well-known gangsters of the era, Jelly soon found himself embroiled in missions with international implications. To do his job and keep himself alive, he would need to rely on both his legendary gunfighting skills as well as what author John Steinbeck referred to as ¿the final weapon¿¿his quick, analytical brain.

Book excerpt: The third and final installment of the JELLY BRYCE Trilogy, The Man in the Mirror follows FBI Special Agent Delf "Jelly" Bryce through the tumultuous war years from 1941 until his death in 1974.Many things changed for Jelly during this time period, as both he and the country he loved matured while dealing with threats both from within and without.This is a story of true courage, amazing physical ability, and personal honor tempered by the inner struggles of a man driven to do the right thing in a world in which that path is not always clear.Inspired by historical events."Ideally, I suppose every writer of history hopes someone will take their work and improve upon it. I cannot praise Mike Conti's Jelly Bryce trilogy too highly. He has breathed life into Jelly Bryce in ways my biography could not; ways in which the dry facts of newspaper articles, police reports, personnel files and even interviews of some friends and relatives have fallen short. I only wish Jelly could have read the trilogy. I believe he would have approved."-- Ron OwensAuthor of "Jelly Bryce, Legendary Lawman"

Book excerpt: An ant has two stomachs. I know this because my neighbor told me; and to my knowledge he never lied to me. It's fascinating how a person's attitude and feelings about someone, about life in general, can change so much in such a short time. Two months ago I hardly knew the meaning of the word 'time'. Another thing I learned from him: how to view everything from varying objective perspectives; especially with respect to time. If I had it to do over again, I'd have been more inquisitive. My wife Gwen accuses me of asking too many questions, but with him, I couldn't have asked enough. He knew everything. Is it possible to ask someone who knows everything too many questions? But I did ask a lot of questions, and there were always answers. And I liked the answers. They fit. They were logical. They placed everything in perspective and made me see the picture as a whole. I thought you might find it interesting why I thought the only logical thing I could do was kill him.
