Book Synopsis Heart Bar Ranch: And Johnson Valley Neighbors by : Martha Wood Coutant
Download or read book Heart Bar Ranch: And Johnson Valley Neighbors written by Martha Wood Coutant and published by Morongo Basin Historical Society. This book was released on 2020-01-22 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early in the nineteenth century, Heart Bar Ranch was the name of a large southern California cattle business that operated from the San Bernardino Mountains, near Big Bear. Old Woman Springs became the winter headquarters and was transformed into a high desert oasis. Cattleman Albert Swarthout and right-hand man, Charlie Reche, improved the springs and planted alfalfa and an orchard. Twice a year the cattle were herded between the desert range surrounding Old Woman Springs and the summer pastures at Big Meadows in the mountains. These cattle drives, through rugged canyons and up and down steep mountain slopes, were perilous for both man and beast. Old Woman Springs Ranch quickly acquired a special place in the history of this part of the Mojave Desert. The story about how this frequently used water source was named in the 1850's when a surveying party led by Colonel Henry Washington encountered Native American women there is fairly well known. Today, the ranch is still visible from Old Woman Springs Road (State Route 247) to travelers on their way to Yucca Valley or Victorville. Swarthout first homesteaded at Old Woman Springs in 1907. He and his family lived there, off and on for almost forty years. During this time, their way of life began to change as the region became more settled. Martha Coutant's book, Heart Bar Ranch and Johnson Valley Neighbors, is a history of this period in California. In this book you will find the stories of the individuals, couples and families who came to visit or work and live in the Mojave Desert-cattlemen and cowboys, wives, children and homesteaders.

Book Synopsis Resisting Change in Suburbia by : James Zarsadiaz
Download or read book Resisting Change in Suburbia written by James Zarsadiaz and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2022-10-18 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the 1980s and the first decade of the twenty-first century, Asian Americans in Los Angeles moved toward becoming a racial majority in the communities of the East San Gabriel Valley. By the late 1990s, their "model minority" status resulted in greater influence in local culture, neighborhood politics, and policies regarding the use of suburban space. In the "country living" subdivisions, which featured symbols of Western agrarianism including horse trails, ranch fencing, and Spanish colonial architecture, white homeowners encouraged assimilation and enacted policies suppressing unwanted "changes"—that is, increased density and influence of Asian culture. While some Asian suburbanites challenged whites' concerns, many others did not. Rather, white critics found support from affluent Asian homeowners who also wished to protect their class privilege and suburbia's conservative Anglocentric milieu. In Resisting Change in Suburbia, award-winning historian James Zarsadiaz explains how myths of suburbia, the American West, and the American Dream informed regional planning, suburban design, and ideas about race and belonging.

Download or read book The Cold Dish written by Craig Johnson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introducing Wyoming’s Sheriff Walt Longmire in this riveting novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Hell Is Empty and As the Crow Flies, the first in the Longmire Mystery Series, the basis for LONGMIRE, the hit Netflix original drama series. Fans of Ace Atkins, Nevada Barr and Robert B. Parker will love this outstanding first novel, in which New York Times bestselling author Craig Johnson introduces Sheriff Walt Longmire of Wyoming’s Absaroka County. Johnson draws on his deep attachment to the American West to produce a literary mystery of stunning authenticity, and full of memorable characters. After twenty-five years as sheriff of Absaroka County, Walt Longmire’s hopes of finishing out his tenure in peace are dashed when Cody Pritchard is found dead near the Northern Cheyenne Reservation. Two years earlier, Cody has been one of four high school boys given suspended sentences for raping a local Cheyenne girl. Somebody, it would seem, is seeking vengeance, and Longmire might be the only thing standing between the three remaining boys and a Sharps .45-70 rifle. With lifelong friend Henry Standing Bear, Deputy Victoria Moretti, and a cast of characters both tragic and humorous enough to fill in the vast emptiness of the high plains, Walt Longmire attempts to see that revenge, a dish best served cold, is never served at all.

Book Synopsis Tame A Wild Heart by : Cynthia Woolf
Download or read book Tame A Wild Heart written by Cynthia Woolf and published by Firehouse Publishing. This book was released on 2011-07-22 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catherine Evans fell in love when she was three years old, head-over-heels, forever kind of love. The very first moment she saw twelve-year-old Duncan McKenzie, she told God and her pony that she was going to marry that boy. He was handsome. He was kind. He was strong and smart and all the good things a boy should be. For thirteen years she loved him with every beat of her heart. And on her sixteenth birthday he walked away from her father's ranch, and from her. He didn't look back over his shoulder. Not even once. And from that day forward, Catherine Evans swore off all men. Her heart turned to stone, her will to iron, and her vow to God changed. She'd run her father's ranch. She'd succeed. She'd survive. And she would never, ever love another man as long as she lived. Duncan McKenzie left the ranch ten years ago, desperate to escape temptation in the form of a budding young lady too innocent to claim for his own. But Catherine's frightened father summons him home. The ranch is under attack and the old man's stubborn daughter refuses to seek help. Duncan left a sweet young girl behind a decade ago. He returns to a defiant siren, a woman whose heart is as wild as the land she would sacrifice her life to protect. When Catherine's father coerces her into marrying Duncan, the fire in her eyes spells trouble, but it's the kind of trouble Duncan has no desire to resist. Marriage is the only way he can protect her. Especially when Duncan's own past comes calling in the form of one extremely dangerous and vengeful outlaw, Catherine's cowardly enemies want the ranch badly enough to kill for it, and his reluctant bride is very much in their way.

Book excerpt: “It’s the scenery—and the big guy standing in front of the scenery—that keeps us coming back to Craig Johnson’s lean and leathery mysteries.” —The New York Times Book Review Walt journeys into the northern Mexican desert alone to save his daughter Cady, who has been kidnapped by the cartel Welcome to Walt Longmire's worst nightmare. Winter is creeping closer, but for Sheriff Longmire this one is looking to be harsh in a way to which he is wholly unaccustomed. He has found himself in the remotest parts of the northern Mexican desert, a lawless place where no horse or car can travel, where no one speaks his language or trusts an outsider, far from his friends and his home turf back in Wyoming. But desperate times call for desperate measures. Tomas Bidarte, the head of one of the most vicious drug cartels in Mexico, has kidnapped Walt's beloved daughter, Cady. The American government is of limited help and the Mexican one even less so. Armed with his trusty Colt .45 and a father's intuition, Walt must head into the 110-degree heat of the desert, one man against an army.
