Synopsis

Step into the rugged heart of Montana's Bear Paw country with B.M. Bower's The Flying U Ranch, a classic Western tale brimming with humor, camaraderie, and frontier challenges. Life at the Flying U Ranch flows with the rhythm of cowboy routines until the arrival of Miguel Rapponi, a flamboyant newcomer whose ostentatious attire and aloof demeanor unsettle the tight-knit group known as the Happy Family. As tensions simmer, a more pressing threat emerges: thousands of sheep encroach upon the cattlemen's territory, igniting the age-old conflict between cowboys and sheepherders. With the ranch's leaders, Chip and the Old Man, away in Chicago, the Happy Family must navigate these challenges, balancing pride, prejudice, and the preservation of their way of life. Bower's narrative, rich with authentic dialogue and vivid depictions of ranch life, offers readers a window into the complexities of early 20th-century Western America, where loyalty and resilience are tested against the backdrop of an evolving frontier.

    Accompanied by his Crow partner, Moses Red Buffalo, the famed army scout Nathan Stark takes on a mission in Montana Territory that forces him to choose between duty and honor in this action-packed frontier adventure from the Greatest Western Writers of the 21st Century. 
      
    Steely-eyed. Quick as a rattler. Unforgiving as the desert sun. The stories of Nathan Stark’s grit and determination as a manhunter across Indian territory are legendary. He stalks the wild western frontier on behalf of the army, pursuing hostiles to avenge his slaughtered family—and redeem his own failure to protect them. 
      
    Once again reluctantly partnered with Crow scout Moses Red Buffalo, Nathan has been assigned to assist the U.S. cavalry in escorting a large band of Blackfoot Indians across Montana and into Canada. Refusing to leave, Chief Thunder Elk threatens to wage war if his tribe is not left alone. Wealthy rancher Bennett McGreevey wants the land the Blackfoot call home, and he’s powerful enough to ensure the army does his bidding. 
      
    But Nathan Stark is not a soldier. And no cattle baron is going to give him marching orders. It’s a perfect storm for bullets to rain sheer hell across the land … 
      
    NATHAN STARK—A MAN TO RIDE THE RIVER WITH.

    From a New York Times–bestselling author: Three epic historical novels that bring to life the spirit of the Jewish immigrant experience in America.  New York Times–bestselling author Cynthia Freeman is beloved for her multigenerational sagas of Jewish immigrant families in America, including her sensational debut, A World Full of Strangers, which sold more than a million copies. The three novels collected here center on ordinary, heroic women who journey across the ocean in search of opportunity, finding both community and adversity, family togetherness and private grief, tragedy and triumph.  A World Full of Strangers: In 1932, Polish immigrant Katie Kovitz is embraced by the Jewish community of the Lower East Side. But after marrying a man who rejects his heritage, she struggles to reclaim her lost identity in this sensational debut novel.  Portraits: In this New York Times bestseller, Esther Sandsonitsky leaves her abusive husband and journeys to the United States in order to capture a piece of the American dream for her children—including Jacob, the son she was forced to leave behind.  No Time for Tears: “This impassioned novel follows its heroine, Chavala Landau, from turn-of-the-century Russia to Palestine and on to the United States, where she carves out a financial empire in the diamond industry before returning to Jerusalem in 1948” (The New York Times).

    "Howards End" is one of E.M. Forster's most celebrated novels, first published in 1910. At the heart of the story is the country house, Howards End, which becomes a symbol for the narrative's exploration of the social, economic, and class divisions in early 20th-century England. The novel intertwines the lives of three families: the idealistic, intellectual Schlegel sisters, the wealthy, pragmatic Wilcoxes, and the working-class Basts. Through their interconnected relationships, Forster scrutinizes the changing societal landscape, especially the diminishing values of the Edwardian era and the rise of modernity. Themes of inheritance, belonging, love, and betrayal are delicately interwoven, showcasing Forster's profound understanding of human nature and societal constraints.
