Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2020 Reading the West Book Awards, Longlist for Fiction 2020 Association for Morman Letters Finalist, Fiction The Desert Between Us is a sweeping, multi-layered novel based on the U.S. government’s decision to open more routes to California during the Gold Rush. To help navigate this waterless, largely unexplored territory, the War Department imported seventy-five camels from the Middle East to help traverse the brutal terrain that was murderous on other livestock. Geoffrey Scott, one of the roadbuilders, decides to venture north to discover new opportunities in the opening of the American West when he—and the camels—are no longer needed. Geoffrey arrives in St. Thomas, Nevada, a polygamous settlement caught up in territorial fights over boundaries and new taxation. There, he falls in love with Sophia Hughes, a hatmaker obsessed with beauty and the third wife of a polygamist. Geoffrey believes Sophia wants to be free of polygamy and go away with him to a better life, but Sophia’s motivations are not so easily understood. She had become committed to Mormon beliefs in England and had moved to Utah Territory to assuage her spiritual needs. The death of Sophia’s child and her illicit relationship with Geoffrey generate a complex nexus where her new love for Geoffrey competes with societal expectations and a rugged West seeking domesticity. When faced with the opportunity to move away from her polygamist husband and her tumultuous life in St. Thomas, Sophia becomes tormented by a life-changing decision she must face alone.

Book excerpt: WHAT IS THIS BOOK ABOUT? Everyone feels small or inadequate at some point in their lives. The Tiniest Tumbleweed is a story written to help children learn more about what they can do to become their best selves, despite whatever may be making them feel small or limited. The characters are two Sonoran Desert neighbors, a tiny tumbleweed and a baby house sparrow, who are both small for their age. Guided by the loving encouragement of their parents, they learn to work within their physical limitations to grow to be the best they can be, rather than measure themselves against others. As a result, they also learn how they can help one another, providing a lesson about the synergy between living things and the boundless opportunities those relationships provide. WHAT MAKES IT UNIQUE? The proven psychological concepts for building self-efficacy combined with a children's literature writing method that helps young readers believe in limitless opportunities are what make The Tiniest Tumbleweed unique. The connection between the characters in the book, a tiny tumbleweed and a sparrow, provides a fascinating look into the real-life desert relationship between tumbleweeds and birds. Following the story, a well-researched curriculum guide captivates young readers, helping them develop a deeper respect for nature.

Book Synopsis Wings in the Desert by : Amadeo M. Rea
Download or read book Wings in the Desert written by Amadeo M. Rea and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a common but often unspoken arrogance on the part of outside observers that folk science and traditional knowledge—the type developed by Native communities and tribal groups—is inferior to the “formal science” practiced by Westerners. In this lucidly written and humanistic account of the O’odham tribes of Arizona and Northwest Mexico, ethnobiologist Amadeo M. Rea exposes the limitations of this assumption by exploring the rich ornithology that these tribes have generated about the birds that are native to their region. He shows how these peoples’ observational knowledge provides insights into the behaviors, mating habits, migratory patterns, and distribution of local bird species, and he uncovers the various ways that this knowledge is incorporated into the communities’ traditions and esoteric belief systems. Drawing on more than four decades of field and textual research along with hundreds of interviews with tribe members, Rea identifies how birds are incorporated, both symbolically and practically, into Piman legends, songs, art, religion, and ceremonies. Through highly detailed descriptions and accounts loaded with Native voice, this book is the definitive study of folk ornithology. It also provides valuable data for scholars of linguistics and North American Native studies, and it makes a significant contribution to our understanding of how humans make sense of their world. It will be of interest to historians of science, anthropologists, and scholars of indigenous cultures and folk taxonomy.
Book Synopsis Deserts and Mountains by : Yilmaz Alimoglu
Download or read book Deserts and Mountains written by Yilmaz Alimoglu and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-04-23 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yilmaz Alimoglu's personal website wwww.desertsandmountains.com Follow the character of Ali Dogan as he embarks on a transformative emotional, physical and spiritual journey from east to west in Deserts and Mountains, the new philosophical novel by Yilmaz Alimoglu. Frustrated with his business, career and family, Ali Dogan, an expatriate Turk living in Canada, turns to his spiritual advisor for guidance. The sheikh counsels Ali to embark on a journey in an attempt to understand the war in his heart and to examine ever more deeply the meanings of the separation from his wife and children, and of his journey. Ali is also instructed to keep a journal of his experiences, a map of his heart; out of this journal is born Deserts and Mountains. Ali leaves his adopted home on a trip which will take him to five countries on two continents, with no fixed agenda other than to reflect on his life. He first makes his way back to his family in Turkey, a visit that raises mixed emotions for the protagonist. Having endured physical and emotional abuse at the hands of Turkish state secret agents and his father, he struggles to cope with the effects as an adult. Ali, prompted to examine his life more profoundly, seeks a broader understanding of its significance, while critically analyzing the cultural context from which he has emerged. Ali travels through Turkey, Spain and North Africa, places that bear the traces of ancient civilizations, where he experiences a dichotomy of emotions as he rediscovers love and struggles to make sense of the injustice, corruption and destitution that he witnesses. Through his observation and participation, Ali slowly begins to recognize the inherent similarities in the struggles of all humanity. The narrative shifts to a more philosophical tone as Ali begins to assimilate what he is learning and develops a fresh perspective on his own life, experiencing a spiritual renewal. “There are several themes woven into the text; friendship, loyalty, freedom, choice and its consequences; love and the individuals’ capacity both to love and be loved,” Alimoglu writes. “Aside from the journey Ali has undertaken in the physical world, an overarching theme putting all the others in context is Ali’s journey towards a deeper understanding of the spiritual tradition of Sufism.” Discover more in the pages of this engaging new book that will take you on a journey to create a map of your own heart as you explore with Ali how the difficulties of one’s past can bring a renewed understanding of possibilities for the future. “Deserts and Mountains is a remarkable volume of insight, beauty, poetic expression and spiritual development. I had to read parts of it very, very slowly so I could savor the beauty of the language and the majesty of the metaphors. I encourage you to pick it up, get through the first chapter which is like packing for a vacation, a routine task that gives way to some of the richest memories.”
