Midwest Book ReviewThe harsh and rugged Colorado frontier of 1875 is not the type of place most would consider suitable for a recent widow to establish a home of her own. Yet that is exactly what Henrietta Schodde determines she will do as she impetuously buys a cabin in the newly forming settlement of Estes Park. Despite assurances from Henrietta that the locals appear amiable, her relatives are concerned and recruit the assistance of long-time family friend Collan Wallace, who unbeknownst to Henrietta, has also just begun homesteading in the area.The last thing Collan desires is to watch over the woman who has been his nemesis since childhood. But the pair quickly realize that there is more than each other to fight about when they discover an unscrupulous Englishman, Lord Dunraven, is hungry for their land.Endearing and engaging, Settling the Wind, is historical fiction based on actual events that reveals the courage of Colorado's pioneers in the face of more struggles than they could have imagined.

Download or read book Calhan written by Percy Conarroe and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-12-04 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of Calhan, Colorado and the childhood experiences of Percy Conarroe are chronicled in this charming autobiography. While Percy was growing up, Calhan was located on the remote, windswept plains east of Colorado Springs. It's since been swallowed up by a growing population that's moved steadily eastward from the Front Range. Percy's coming-of-age memories are recorded, including his first date, learning about sex, and stirring up trouble with his best friends. Calhan was founded in 1888, concurrently with laying the track from Limon to Colorado Springs for the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific railroad. The settlement was originally named Calahan, after a contractor who built this section of track, but later shortened to Calhan "to accommodate scarce printing space on railroad timetables." The Calhan settlement became incorporated as a Colorado municipality on May 10, 1919.

A war is coming, and few can stand in their way. Saint (lovably fearless, temporarily destitute, currently unable to find a shirt) may be our only hope. Tony, suddenly unemployed and potentially a taniwha herself, has little choice but to accept the role her bloodline dictates. And Hinewai, who fell with the rain? If she can't find her one true love, there's a good chance that none will live to see the morning"--Publisher information.
