Book Synopsis Cascade County and Great Falls by : Ken Robison
Download or read book Cascade County and Great Falls written by Ken Robison and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Great Falls, on the Missouri River, began as a city of sun, water, and future. Long a crossroads for Native Americans, in 1805, the Lewis and Clark Expedition portaged the great falls of the Missouri. Early development combined electrical power from dams with mineral resources from nearby mountains to power smelters and refineries. The railroad stimulated growth as Great Falls became a dynamic "Electric City" at the heart of the mountains and valleys of Cascade County. Today the river, ranching and farming, regional retail, and medical facilities combine with cultural and recreational tourism and Montana's largest military presence. Great Falls boasts Montana's greatest ethnic diversity, with the state's largest Native American and African American populations. A world-class symphony and the renowned Charles M. Russell Museum help round out Great Falls as Montana's "All-American City."
Download or read book Great Falls written by Don Peterson and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before Meriwether Lewis saw the Great Falls of the Missouri River in 1805, the area had been visited for centuries by plains bison and the Blackfeet Indians. The city's founding father, Paris Gibson, learned of the falls from Lewis and Clark's journals, and with financing from railroader James J. Hill, Gibson began building the city of Great Falls in 1884, capitalizing on its Missouri River location. After the railroad arrived, the first of five hydroelectric dams was built, along with smelters for silver and copper. The year 1909 saw the homestead boom and settlers by the thousands, while World War II's construction boom supported large military facilities in the city. Great Falls' good times lasted 90 years.

Book Synopsis CHARLIE RUSSELL The Cowboy Years by : Jane Lambert
Download or read book CHARLIE RUSSELL The Cowboy Years written by Jane Lambert and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-06-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CHARLIE RUSSELL: The Cowboy Years is not an art book, research paper, or novel, and definitely not fiction. This engaging narrative chronicles the eleven years Charles M. Russell spent on the open range of Montana working as a cowboy, from 1882 until 1893. With Charlie cast as the centerpiece - which he often was during this period - and a supporting cast of friends and horses, this colorful history is filled with adventure. These years as a working cowboy were a formative time for this talented and complex artist, a man of integrity who had a great sense of humor, both childlike and raucous. Saddle up then, and reide along with Charlie and his friends. Tighten your cinch, adjust your stampede string, keep a leg on each side, and expect to have a good time!

Book Synopsis Love in the Midst of COVID by : Mary Sheehy Moe
Download or read book Love in the Midst of COVID written by Mary Sheehy Moe and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-08 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When COVID-19 drove Americans into isolation in 2020, long-time educator Mary Sheehy Moe turned to the "3 R's" she knew best: reading, reflecting, and writing. Love in the Midst of COVID, originating as a series of Facebook posts, is the result."I'm afraid. You are too, right?" she wrote in March. "I'm afraid the test I've always wondered about, the test for my generation like the ones my parents' generation faced, and their parents' before them, has come at last. Our Depression. Our World War II. Our polio." Love in the Midst of COVID is at once a portrait of a fearful, politically turbulent time and a montage of the reflections of a grandchild of Irish immigrants, a child of the '60s, and a fiercely doting grandmother. In between the lines is a crib sheet for the tests of any turbulent time.

Download or read book Behind Every Man written by Joan Stauffer and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2011-11-28 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After Nancy Cooper married Charlie Russell in 1895, she helped turn a journeyman cowboy and ranch hand who sketched and sculpted in his spare time into a full-time artist who sold and exhibited all over the globe. In Behind Every Man: The Story of Nancy Cooper Russell, Joan Stauffer offers the first biography of the person whom Charles Russell called “the best booster and pardner a man ever had.” Stauffer’s portrait, evoked in the voice of its subject and based on a decade of research, offers readers both a complete life story of Nancy Russell and creative insight into her thoughts and feelings. Stauffer reveals that Nancy and Charles’s union created a practical synergy. Always an advocate for her husband, a steward of his art, and a liaison to his admirers and critics, Nancy’s greatest contribution may have been the inspiration she provided Charles. “I done my best work for her,” the cowboy artist once remarked.
