Download or read book Marshal Sands and Mrs. Molly written by V. E Bixenstine and published by Western Adventurer. This book was released on 2007-05 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Synopsis (Marshal Sands and Mrs. Molly) Molly Dandridge trusts a charming rogue and, against her father's wishes, elopes with him from her Chicago home. He abandons her in Green River City, Wyoming, to face her shame and live or perish in frontier America circa 1880. Liz Dunlap urges her to go home. She will not. Instead, she becomes one of Liz's saloon girls. Alas, she is unable to adopt the emotional distance Liz advocates, so when a young customer proposes marriage, her shame reignites. She sets out through winter's snow, seeking release from life's complications. Liz sends Andy Phillips, the saloon owner, who finds her near death. Liz and Andy devise a solution. She becomes Andy's house card dealer. U.S. Marshal Pur (Purgatory) T. Sands arrives and is dispatched to escort Soapy Smith to Denver. Soapy escapes and eludes pursuit, but Purgatory finally divines where he has gone, captures him, and escorts him into his CO's office. The Commander had assigned Purgatory the mission hoping to prove him incompetent, but, with Purgatory's success recapturing Soapy, he decides, "I want nobody else but you back in that post." In Green River City, he meets Molly. They are mutually attracted, but both hold back. Spring comes, putting in motion Milliard Jacobs' plans to provoke ranchers into a range war with his hired ruffians led by Kenneth McMann. Just as the war clouds gather, Jean Frenchy Dubois, one of McMann's men, abducts Molly with Purgatory in pursuit. Purgatory catches up, blunders into a trap, and breaks his leg. Molly diverts Frenchy from killing him by promising to go "freely" with Frenchy. Believing she lies, he is about to kill her when Kenneth McMann appears seeking to show that no underling takes his horse and departs his service without dire cost. McMann kills Frenchy but spares Molly and Purgatory as not worthy of killing. Molly and Purgatory return to Green River City. Purgatory, on crutches, awaits anyone seeking the Doctor's services for wounds incurred from the ongoing war. Hank Miller, who killed Kenneth McMann's brother, escorts in three wounded men. Purgatory arrests Miller. Soon thereafter, Kenneth arrives with three men, one wounded, seeking revenge on Miller. McMann and Purgatory duel. McMann is killed. Purgatory and Deputy Paul Thirloway trade fire with McMann's two able bodied henchmen who are killed, but Paul is wounded. Purgatory turns to Paul, and the wounded, still-living, McMann follower shoots Purgatory in the back. Purgatory recovers and leaves for Trinidad to finally confront his past. He learns that Lilly, Andrew Castle's daughter, killed herself without having a child that she had threatened to claim was Purgatory's. The news drains him of all fear of and hate for Andrew. Without inquiring of Kate Kantel or his abandoned property, he leaves to retrace his outlaw haunts, trying to make sense of his life. The men he killed obsess him. He arrives at Santa Fe and Marshal Sam Boden's office. Sam understands the soul-searching Purgatory is undergoing, and once again offers the fruits of his experience and avuncular regard. Purgatory heals and lays aside the identity of Purgatory Sands to resume that of a more mature Justin Simms. He returns to Green River City. Molly is startled at the change in him. He tells her that he will never again be Purgatory Sands nor ever again leave her. They marry, and some years later Justin Simms unknown to Molly visits her parents in Chicago. She is at first outraged, but gradually he becomes the agent of Molly's return to the bosom of her family.

Book Synopsis Tahoe Tales of Historic Times & Unforgettable People by : Don Lane
Download or read book Tahoe Tales of Historic Times & Unforgettable People written by Don Lane and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manuscript is a collection of short stories that were originally prepared as part of a radio program that began in the early 1980's as a summer informational and educational program for Tahoe area residents and visitors. Between 1982 and 1985, the author presented over a hundred live radio features about Tahoe's history and the environment over Tahoe radio station KTHO. Lane returned to the radio airways in 1995, this time with Tahoe radio station KOWL-AM-1490, and has since broadcast over 3000 radio tales: "Don Lanes Tales of Tahoe." The book is a distinctive collection of short stories about the colorful people, the characters, the dreamers and schemers that lived and worked in and around Lake Tahoe and the Sierras during the pioneer days of the Gold Rush and during the Comstock Years...people like Mark Twain, Joaquin Murrieta, and Lola Montez. It is also a collection of true stories about the unheralded pioneer men and women that were in their own simple way, inspiring. There are also tales about historic events in our region's diverse history and off-beat tales about ghosts, bandits and even about true love. The collection of tales weaves serious history with light-hearted stories without editorializing or fictionalizing by the author, as the emphasis has been on historical integrity and authenticity. The stories have been gathered from historical journals, diaries, museum collections, archives and history records. The stories are both entertaining and educational, and hopefully will provide insight into a time long past, and provide a greater awareness and appreciation for the people that have been forgotten over the years as time has passed by.

Book Synopsis The Earth Remains Forever by : Rob Jackson
Download or read book The Earth Remains Forever written by Rob Jackson and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-07-05 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing especially for people who've tuned out the environmental debate, Rob Jackson persuasively argues that we're at a crucial turning point in environmental history, where choices we make now will determine the quality of life into the unforeseeable future. Laying out the scientific facts in plain language and with flashes of humor, he shows how the escalation of population growth and resource consumption in the twentieth century caused problems from ozone depletion to global warming, habitat destruction, and biodiversity loss. At the same time, however, he highlights ongoing solutions to these problems and ways in which we can create a sustainable future for subsequent generations and all life on earth. His urgent message is not that we've already failed, but that we can succeed.
