Once called "Country and Western," it is now described as "Country or Western." Though much has been written about "Country," very little has been written about "Western"--until now. Featured are a number of photos of the top stars in Western music, past and present. Also included is an extensive bibliography of works related to the Western music field.

Come on over to Wisper, Wyoming, where love doesn’t come easy, but the fall is hot! Burned (Book One): Jack Cade doesn’t trust women, and with his failing ranch, he doesn’t have time for them. Everlea Donovan doesn’t trust anyone; she’s been on the run a long time, but when Jack and Everlea are forced together at Cade Ranch, beneath the breathtaking peaks of the Teton Mountains, Everlea’s past catches up to them, and they find that trust might be the only thing to save them both… Broken (Book Two): When Dean Cade broke Oly Masterson’s heart, he did it to protect her. He never imagined he’d get a second chance, but now that she’s home from vet school abroad, he’s smacked in the face with past decisions. Oly wants to avoid Dean Cade like the plague, but it’s kinda hard when she’s one of only two veterinarians in town and he lives and works on a horse ranch. The heat between them hasn’t died, that’s for dang sure. When Dean is hired to protect her from a mysterious threat in both their lives, Oly knows she can’t walk away, but if Dean doesn’t open up and let her in, that’s what she’ll have to do. Busted (Book Three): Kevin Cade can’t even say the word “gay,” much less admit that he is. He’s waited his whole life to connect to another man on a soul-deep level, and when Luuk van der Wouden moves to town to work at the local vet clinic, that’s exactly what happens. Except, living out loud was never part of Kevin’s plan. What if his brothers can’t accept him? When the best thing to ever happen to him threatens to walk away, Kevin has to decide: Love or lie? Love at Cade Ranch is a bundle of the first three books in the Cowboys of Cade Ranch series. There’s dashes of suspense, plot twists you won’t see coming, and plenty of spice. Check trigger warnings before each story, but there’s also heartwarming found family, good ol’ down-home happily ever afters, and lots of humor too. Enjoy!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An eloquent, honest tribute to a sports genius.” —Publishers Weekly, Best 100 Books of 2013 As the coach during professional football’s most storied era, Tom Landry transformed the gridiron from a no-holds-barred battlefield to the highly-technical chess match it is today. With his trademark fedora and stoic facade, he was a man of faith and few words, for twenty-nine years guiding “America’s Team” from laughingstock to well-oiled machine, with an unprecedented twenty consecutive winning seasons and two Super Bowl titles. Now, more than a decade after Landry’s death, acclaimed biographer Mark Ribowsky takes a fresh look at this misunderstood legend, telling us as much about our country’s obsession with football as about Landry himself, the likes of whom we’ll never see again.

Book excerpt: A gritty, breakneck debut novel by a popular Croatian writer of the country’s “lost generation.” Dada’s life is at a standstill in Zagreb—she’s sleeping with a married man, working a dead-end job, and even the parties have started to feel exhausting. So when her sister calls her back home to help with their aging mother, she doesn’t hesitate to leave the city behind. But she arrives to find her mother hoarding pills, her sister chain-smoking, her long-dead father’s shoes still lined up on the steps, and the cowboy posters of her younger brother Daniel (who threw himself under a train four years ago) still on the walls. Hoping to free her family from the grip of the past, Dada vows to unravel the mystery of Daniel’s final days. This American debut by a poet from Croatia’s “lost generation” explores a beautiful Mediterranean town’s darkest alleys: the bars where secrets can be bought, the rooms where bodies can be sold, the plains and streets and houses where blood is shed. By the end of the long summer, the lies, lust, feuds, and frustration will come to a violent and hallucinatory head.
Download or read book The Bad Lands written by Oakley Hall and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2016-10-10 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the acclaimed author of Warlock comes “an elegiac, incandescent 1880s Dakota badlands Western that bears comparison to the greats” (Kirkus). It’s 1883 in Johnson County, in the old Dakota Territory—a rugged, wide-open landscape of rolling red earth, prairie, and cattle as far as the eye can see. But the land is closing, the “Beef Bonanza” is ending, and the free-range cattlemen are stuck watching their way of life disappear in a blaze of drought and gunfire. An action-packed western from one of the masters of the genre, Oakley Hall’s The Bad Lands blends roundups and rustlers, whorehouses and land grabs, shoot-outs and the threat of hangings in a tale of the war between the cowboys and the cattle barons. But more than this, it is an elegy to the wild beauty of the badlands before the ranchers moved in, chased off the free-rangers, the trappers, and the tribes, and fenced it all in. “Readers unable to suppress an unfashionable yearning for a good story will be delighted with The Bad Lands.”—Larry McMurtry, The New York Times
