Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a frontier town goes dry, the sheriff must enforce the law—and go toe to toe with deadly bootleggers—in this historical Western. It was a law Cotton Pickens never asked for and never wanted to enforce. But due to the vigilance of the Women's Temperance Society, the town of Doubtful, Wyoming, is going dry as of January 1st. And since Doubtful’s hell-raisers will never take it lying down, the new year is rung in with the promise of gunshots ringing out. While Sheriff Pickens is fighting bootleggers and vigilantes, the righteous women push through an even worse law bound to spark an outright insurrection. The world's oldest profession is the next vice to be outlawed. With all hell breaking loose and the National Guard on the way, Sheriff Pickens has enemies everywhere he turns. And for a lawman under siege, survival means fast thinking, straight shooting—and breaking a law or two himself . . .

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Massacre of Wyoming: The Acts of Congress for the Defense of the Wyoming Valley, Pennsylvania, 1776-1778; With the Petitions of the Sufferers by the Massacre of July 3, 1778, for Congressional Aid No one with a love for the beautiful in nature can stand on the top of Prospect Rock on a summer day, and gaze upon the exquisite loveliness of the Wyoming Valley with out a thrill of admiration. Nor will he wonder that Indians and white men could have battled with each other for the possession of so fair a domain. Its beauty was doubtless fa. Greater one hundred and thirty years ago, before art had entered to change the face of nature, when the forest was broken only here and there by a few clearings and cabins, and the silence unbroken except by the voices of nature. It doubtless appeared a Paradise to the little band of colonists who came here in 1762, and were made to suffer so sorely in the Indian Massacre of 1763. Else, why did a second colony from Connecticut essay in 1769 to recover what had been so mercilessly wrested from them six years before? Willing to endure, as they did, a series of disasters for the next twenty years or more, they settled, cleared, built and sowed with the desperate resolve to retain possession at the peril of life and fortune. During the years preceding the Revolutionary War, from 1769 to 1775, so frequent were the conflicts resulting in bloodshed within the town of Westmoreland, that it may be said to have been in a state of continual war. It was a repetition of the experience of their New England ancestors, who went to the plow and the church with the trusty rifle slung over their shoulder.

Book Synopsis Slaughterhouse-Five by : Kurt Vonnegut
Download or read book Slaughterhouse-Five written by Kurt Vonnegut and published by Dial Press Trade Paperback. This book was released on 1999-01-12 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kurt Vonnegut’s masterpiece, Slaughterhouse-Five is “a desperate, painfully honest attempt to confront the monstrous crimes of the twentieth century” (Time). Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best novels of all time Slaughterhouse-Five, an American classic, is one of the world’s great antiwar books. Centering on the infamous World War II firebombing of Dresden, the novel is the result of what Kurt Vonnegut described as a twenty-three-year struggle to write a book about what he had witnessed as an American prisoner of war. It combines historical fiction, science fiction, autobiography, and satire in an account of the life of Billy Pilgrim, a barber’s son turned draftee turned optometrist turned alien abductee. As Vonnegut had, Billy experiences the destruction of Dresden as a POW. Unlike Vonnegut, he experiences time travel, or coming “unstuck in time.” An instant bestseller, Slaughterhouse-Five made Kurt Vonnegut a cult hero in American literature, a reputation that only strengthened over time, despite his being banned and censored by some libraries and schools for content and language. But it was precisely those elements of Vonnegut’s writing—the political edginess, the genre-bending inventiveness, the frank violence, the transgressive wit—that have inspired generations of readers not just to look differently at the world around them but to find the confidence to say something about it. Authors as wide-ranging as Norman Mailer, John Irving, Michael Crichton, Tim O’Brien, Margaret Atwood, Elizabeth Strout, David Sedaris, Jennifer Egan, and J. K. Rowling have all found inspiration in Vonnegut’s words. Jonathan Safran Foer has described Vonnegut as “the kind of writer who made people—young people especially—want to write.” George Saunders has declared Vonnegut to be “the great, urgent, passionate American writer of our century, who offers us . . . a model of the kind of compassionate thinking that might yet save us from ourselves.” More than fifty years after its initial publication at the height of the Vietnam War, Vonnegut’s portrayal of political disillusionment, PTSD, and postwar anxiety feels as relevant, darkly humorous, and profoundly affecting as ever, an enduring beacon through our own era’s uncertainties.
Book Synopsis The Chinese Massacre at Rock Springs, Wyoming Territory, September 2, 1885 by : Isaac H. Bromley
Download or read book The Chinese Massacre at Rock Springs, Wyoming Territory, September 2, 1885 written by Isaac H. Bromley and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-05-23 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The events of one terrible day in September of 1885 in a Union Pacific Coal Company camp called Rock Springs continue to fascinate and appall. Set off in a dispute at one of the mines by white miners over an area assigned to Chinese, what came to be known as the Chinese Massacre haunts southwest Wyoming to this day. When threats against unarmed Chinese led to an outbreak of violent lawlessness, the houses of Chinatown were burnt to ashes and its residents gunned down or chased at gunpoint into the desert. Following the riot, company officials, the local sheriff, and even Wyoming's territorial governor and U.S. President Grover Cleveland ultimately proved unable to punish even one person for the murders, thefts, and property destruction of September 2, 1885. What mainly disappeared from the record were the everyday lives of the Chinese, mostly single men who hoped to return to China one day, who toiled to bring the carbon out of the ground. In this reprint of an 1886 account of the official inquiries, eyewitness statements, and contemporary newspaper accounts of informative or inflammatory nature, the Sweetwater County Historical Museum adds both familiar and never-before-published photos and documents to augment an already riveting historical record.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Greatest Western Writer Of The 21st Century In the booming mining town of Doubtful, Wyoming, Cotton Pickens is the law. And in William W. and J.A. Johnstone's rollicking new Western, the law is in a fight for its life. . . Making Of A Massacre Cotton Pickens is feeling about as low as a man can get. Held up, robbed and fired from his job as sheriff, things get even worse when someone murders Cotton's horse Critter. And it's all happening just as a flashy, fleshy stage company comes to town. Some folks demand the show be shut down for immorality. Some folks--Cotton included--sure enjoy the proceedings. But when a man gets stabbed to death, a bank safe gets blown up, and another county's sheriff starts imposing his will, Cotton realizes that a dastardly plot is taking over Doubtful. Badge or no badge, Cotton is going to war. To catch a killer. To stand up to some self-righteous fatheads. And for the right to see a little bare-naked leg--or die trying. . .
