Book excerpt: Award-winning writer of Wyatt Earp, An American Odyssey, winner of the 2020 Will Rogers Medallion Award, a 2019 Spur Award Finalist and an “Editor’s Choice” by The Historical Novel Society In 1941 Jonas Walks-Through-the-Storm, a full-blooded Cherokee horse trainer in rural North Carolina, trains an equestrian unit at Camp Tuckasegee. As he straddles the racist divide while working with white men, a mutual love develops between him and the wife of an officer. In modern-day Chicago, Jonas’s one-quarter-native grandson, Russell, battles racism of another color. As a teacher at a mostly black school, he burns out in work, marriage, and self-esteem by sliding into alcoholic dissolution. Divorce, dismissal, and dejection quickly follow. Trying to exhume his self-respect, Russell attempts to revive his lineage through a self-imposed “trial by fire” alone in a night forest. This ceremony leads to a journey to retrace his grandfather’s story. Due to a past scandal, memories of Jonas have been erased in Russell’s family. Yet Russell’s childhood excursions with his grandfather persist. Wandering across Illinois and Wisconsin he interviews the people who knew Jonas and discovers a chain of sobering tragedies. When the search leads to North Carolina’s mountains, Russell comes full circle to his grandfather’s old homestead and discovers the love and purpose that the old man had bequeathed to him through a kinship with the land . . . and a brotherhood with horses.

When the Englishman's sister, a promising Surrey painter, visits along with her husband and young son, the ranch hands soon learn that this reunion is more than a family gathering. The brother-in-law, who provided most of the investment money for the Rolling F Ranch, has come to take over the ownership and management. As the crew ponders its shift of loyalty to such a man, they begin to see signs that he is a wife-beater. When Clayton attempts to interfere in this suppressed spousal abuse, he finds himself in an awkward position with his present employer and future employer. His dedication to protecting this headstrong artistic woman leads to a surprising bond between ranch foreman and celebrated painter, a relationship that totters between mutual respect and romance. With these complications in place, Clayton is treated to a new level of troubles. A Pinkerton detective is sent to Laramie to investigate anonymous threats from a would-be president-assassin. President Grant is due to come into town on a political tour, and Clayton an ex-Southerner finds himself on the Pinkerton's list of suspects.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Excellence and care guide every quiet step Mark Warren makes; to follow him teaches unique, wonderful truths about one’s connection to the Earth and its inhabitants. “ –Rhyse Bendell, Medicine Bow summer camper and student “Mark leads the modern reader along the almost forgotten paths of wood lore, natural medicine, and self-sufficiency. “ –Emily Ghiz, baker and Montessori teacher In this third volume of the “Secrets of the Forest” series, outdoor educator Mark Warren opens the door to experiences with wildlife such as: · how to stalk animals of the wild without being detected by their keen senses. This discipline addresses posture, clothing, diet, de-scenting, and “soft-walking,” the ultra-slow-motion technique that falls below the radar of wildlife’s peripheral vision. · how to read individual tracks and multiple gaits of specific animal species. · how to convert animal skins into rawhide and leather for crafts and clothing. · how to differentiate species of snakes and, in the process, demystify their often misunderstood intentions. The second half of the book is dedicated to games. Its main purpose is to ensure that young ones (under an adult leader) simply have fun on an outing and will want to return to nature for another adventure. Some of these games come from Native American traditions, but many are new and range from “high-action” to “pensive around the campfire” kinds of activities. This volume contains more than one hundred fifty original adventures.

Outdoor rec professionals will expand their knowledge of their natural surroundings to share with their clients. And parents who seek a closer relationship with nature for themselves and their children will learn to become active, adventurous participants in the forest, rather than just occasional visitors.

Book excerpt: Award-winning writer of Wyatt Earp, An American Odyssey, winner of the 2020 Will Rogers Medallion Award, a 2019 Spur Award Finalist and an “Editor’s Choice” by The Historical Novel Society A high school history teacher, Harte Canaday, is going through a divorce in his small mountain town in north Georgia. No longer living at home, he is camping in the wilderness that had been his former riding grounds as a young horseman. Because of his fascination with the Old West and his innate skill with period firearms, Harte stumbles into a shootout with drug traffickers and bests three violent men in a matter of seconds. With his best friend—the sheriff—killed in this affray, the county leaders ask Harte to take over the vacant job. When he pins on the badge, he finds that he was born for the work, but the challenges fall in avalanches as he learns about his county’s entanglement in drug addiction, sexual coercion with minors, and murder. These puzzle parts lead him to investigate people he has known all his life, and the secrets he uncovers take him not only into more violent face-offs but also into an unexpected hard look at what appears to be his own affinity for violence.

Though gifted scholastically, Ash nurtures his real passion—the bow and arrow—in the fields and forests that surround the campus. His devotion to this arcane skill would seem to have nothing to offer for his future. But what about its relevance to his past . . . in a former life? In his senior year, Ash finds himself at the center of a motley circle of friends, all of whom display a certain allegiance to him. One of those is Marin Fitzwalter, a visiting literature teacher from England. Though she is his senior by twenty years, Ash is drawn to her in ways he does not understand. Ever so cautiously, Marin introduces to him the possibility of past incarnations. But Ash will have none of it. Yet, when he is wrongly expelled from school, his new friends rally to the cause and join him as “outlaws” in the forest. This permutation of the Robin Hood legend is a tribute to the powerful bonds that can exist between tried and true friends. Who is to say that souls cannot recycle and return for another go at life? And, when “blood is in the bond,” could not a handful of comrades make that journey back together?

There, young Tyler meets nineteen-year-old camp counselor Stoney St. Ney and Bobby Whitehorse, a full-blooded Cherokee man. These two staffers become the boy’s bodyguards and teachers as they try to protect him and his mother from a father who has connections to organized crime. All seems to go well for a time, as Tyler is introduced to the forest and the ways of the Native Americans who had once lived on the land. When the mafia comes to the mountains to abduct the boy, the gangsters must step onto the foreign playing field of wilderness, where Stoney and Bobby are most “at home.” Praise for Mark Warren “Woven with clarity and colorful prose, Warren leads readers on an odyssey . . .” —True West Magazine on Promised Land “A good book offers the ultimate escape . . . armchair travel to those wild places of the imagination.

Book excerpt: Award-winning writer of Wyatt Earp, An American Odyssey, winner of the 2020 Will Rogers Medallion Award, a 2019 Spur Award Finalist and an “Editor’s Choice” by The Historical Novel Society This modern-day, comic farce follows the convoluted paths of an ensemble cast of characters, who coincidentally converge on a small mountain town in north Georgia. There, in historic Lumpkin County, where gold was discovered more than a century and a half ago, a part-Cherokee curmudgeon named Hoke Limberlost has undertaken a mission to right the wrongs of the white man’s blight on the once pristine land. After a series of bold vandalisms in midnight forays, the old warrior enlists the unlikely help of a restaurant waitress, an aspiring barroom bouncer and his nonpareil mentor, an equestrian teacher, and a clairvoyant. As the reader follows the entwining lives of each player in the story, the past history of the characters are revealed in flashbacks to show the origins of their flaws and ambitions, which are destined to dictate their adult personalities. Turning the tables on history, Hoke puts together a reverse reenactment of one of America’s most atrocious crimes against humanity—the Trail of Tears. This time it’s not the Cherokees who are force-marched from their homeland. Instead, the fat-cat, good-old-boy sheriff and the local, land-hungry, real estate mogul get their comeuppances in one fell swoop in this hilarious exposition of old mountain culture clashing with modern times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fourth volume of the “Secrets of the Forest” series, outdoor educator Mark Warren describes the details of how to make and operate the tools that hurl projectiles toward a target including: · “firing” techniques of a sling, spear, atl-atl, bow and arrow, throwing knife, tomahawk, and blowgun. · a comprehensive lesson in the art of archery that includes the direct, lob, and clout shots, as well as shooting at a moving target. · primitive precision methods of creating your own Cherokee self-bow and rivercane arrows. · cementing projectile skills through a gamut of games and challenges. The second half of the book provides lessons on tandem canoeing, beginning on a lake or pond and evolving to whitewater. The pre-education of paddling starts on a creek with a self-made model boat to understand the dynamics of moving water. On the lake, using a full-sized canoe, paddlers learn how to take control of their craft. Once on current, paddlers are introduced to the never-relenting march of moving water, a phenomenon that must figure into every river maneuver, from planning routes by “reading” the water, eddy turns, lateral ferry maneuvers, peel-outs, hovering in place, and running rapids “dry,” to river-rescue of capsized boats and “swimmers,” and the joy and instruction of slalom. This volume contains more than two hundred original adventures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vision shared. A manifesto. This remarkable work argues that Anishinabeg need to reconnect with non-colonized modes of thinking, social organization, and decision making in order to achieve genuine sovereignty. In Our Hearts Are as One Fire, Jerry Fontaine recounts the stories of three Ota’wa, Shawnee, and Ojibway-Anishinabe leaders who challenged aggressive colonial expansion – Obwandiac, Tecumtha, and Shingwauk. He weaves Ojibwaymowin language and knowledge with conversations with elders and descendants of the three leaders. The result is a book that reframes the history of Manitou Aki, sharing a vision of how Anishinabe spiritual, cultural, legal, and political principles will support the leaders of today and tomorrow.
