Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A "New York Times" bestseller people can believe inaby aa pioneer of the new urban Christiansa ("Christian Today magazine"). Timothy Keller, the founding pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, addresses the frequent doubts that skeptics and non-believers bring to religion. Using literature, philosophy, anthropology, pop culture, and intellectual reasoning, Keller explains how the belief in a Christian God is, in fact, a sound and rational one. To true believers he offers a solid platform on which to stand against the backlash toward religion spawned by the Age of Skepticism. And to skeptics, atheists, and agnostics he provides a challenging argument for pursuing the reason for God. Keller uses literature, philosophy, real-life conversations and reasoning, and even pop culture to explain how faith in a Christian God is a soundly rational belief, held by thoughtful people of intellectual integrity.

Eusebio Francisco Kino, missionary, mathematician, astronomer, navigator, cartographer, explorer, rancher, diplomat, instrument of God's work, and candidate for sainthood. Imagine a seventeenth-century man with these talents and abilities, born to a New World by near-death experience. You have the premise for an epic life journey of faith and discovery. It happened. In 1663 eighteen-year-old Eusebio Kino survives fatal illness he credits to the intercession of his patron, Saint Francis Xavier. He vows to follow his patron's missionary footsteps to China. Following ordination, Padre Kino's path to mission takes a sharp turn west, to New Spain. Over the next thirty years, Padre Kino extended the frontier of Christendom west, establishing mission rancheria from the "island" of California to Pimeria Alta in present-day Sonora Mexico and Southern Arizona. He introduced cattle ranching and cultivation of wheat to the southwest. In fulfilling his life purpose, Padre Kino enriched the lives of those he served while his explorations changed the face of a continent. Vaquero Padre is Eusebio Kino's story, as he might have told it. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. September 11. A date burned into history like a brand. The date of the deadliest mass murder on American soil. But the 9/11 chronicled in With a Kiss I Die occurred in 1857 at a place called Mountain Meadows in Utah Territory-an evil deed unsurpassed in bloody violence until its one hundred and forty-fourth anniversary in 2001. With a Kiss I Die is a love story entwined in the tragedy of the Mountain Meadows Massacre. Polly Alden, a young California-bound Arkansas emigrant, falls in love with Tom Langford, a Mormon boy she meets in the settlements of Utah Territory. Caught between the fear and hatred of the persecuted Saints for the emigrants, and the hostility of the emigrants toward Mormons who will not replenish their dwindling supplies, the young lovers defy mistrust and opposition as they aspire to a life together. Animosity between the emigrants and the settlers grows as the wagon train makes its way south through the territory, culminating in the blood-stained soil of Mountain Meadows. Follow the trail of the Arkansas emigrants and the blossoming affection of the star-crossed lovers in a compelling, engaging tale inspired by history-and the eternal conflict between good and evil, hatred and love.

Based on a true-life character (1847-1928), it rolls through the adventure of his time in the penitentiary, his first years as understudy to a young and lusty female detective named Jennie Hudson, and learning cowboying and stock detective work with his new partner, Wes Wilson, in northwest Texas. He and Hudson work two cases. One ends up in controversy and the other makes national news as they solve the Doctor Perry Talbott case. After that Jonas relocates to Texas. Brighton is a marksman with pistol and rifle, a skill he gained from his Civil War experience. He kills a fellow in self-defense, gains a reputation as a man to avoid, and his partner, Wes, gives him the nickname "Rawhide Jake." The two of them roam the countryside, eliminating rustlers, saving each other's lives more than once, and recovering stolen cattle until they receive orders to go their separate ways."

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. On the night of the full moon in Wyoming Territory, somebody dies a horrible and ghastly death by being scalped. For months, the territory is held by the grip of fear and Governor Hale turns to Charles Porter, founder of the Illinois Detective Agency, for help. Porter's two top agents, James Duffy and Jack Cavill, are on holiday with their lady friends, so Porter assigns Joe Charles and Tom Adcock and scout/tracker Joseph Goodluck, a Mexican Comanche, to the assignment. Charles, Adcock, and Goodluck report to Governor Hale in Wyoming Territory. The most recent full-moon killing took place just a week earlier at the ranch owned by Ben Foster, located north of the capital in Cheyenne. From the Foster Ranch, Goodluck tracks the mystery killer northeast into South Dakota where it appears the trail leads to the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. Goodluck leaves Adcock and Charles behind, as they are not allowed on the reservation, and he visits with the Lakota people to see if they know anything about the scalping and murders. Goodluck learns nothing on the reservation and returns to Adcock and Charles to find they have been scalped and murdered. Goodluck returns to Governor Hale with the news, which sends people all across Wyoming Territory into a panic. Farmers and ranchers leave the territory and Hale fears statehood will be delayed for decades. Charles Porter sends emergency telegrams to Duffy and Cavill to return to the office at once. When Duffy and Cavill arrive, they are reunited with Goodluck, and the men travel to Wyoming to hunt down the mysterious full-moon killer, known by the people as the ghost killer.

SPUR AND WILL ROGERS AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR With the embers of the Lincoln County War still burning, rancher Wes Bracken must rebuild his life amid the white-hot animosities lingering from the deadly feud. His vengeful brother-in-law vows to kill him, the county's economic kingpin seeks revenge, and the despicable outlaw Jesse Evans, who violated Bracken's wife, intends to murder Bracken and his young family. Two promises complicate Bracken's survival chances: a pledge not to kill his wife's brother and a commitment to help William H. Bonney earn a governor's pardon for his crimes. To survive and fulfill his dream of a peaceful life in 1880s New Mexico Territory, Bracken must fight a corrupt legal system, a duplicitous governor, a ubiquitous political ring, and the evil Jesse Evans. If Bracken keeps his promises to his wife and Billy the Kid, he risks an early grave in the same soil that holds so many of the Lincoln County War's dead. If he ignores those pledges, he will dishonor the good name he hopes to build his future upon. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. He survived the war; winning the peace could prove even more dangerous for Union sharpshooter Josey Angel. Following two years of bloody fighting, the army is ready to abandon the Bozeman Trail in the summer of 1868. But a rash of disturbing new raids-their victims beheaded, and not always after death-jeopardizes the delicate negotiations. Josey and his brilliant, beautiful wife, Annabelle, ride into the fray to confront Crazy Horse, who once kidnapped Annabelle and later led a slaughter of eighty-one soldiers at Fort Phil Kearny. They will also face a gunfighter who blames Josey for the deaths of his son and father and a scientist whose unorthodox views of human origins are as disturbing as his hulking henchman and army of mercenaries. All forces converge in a bloody, fiery climax, where Josey and Annabelle will need more than their fast-firing rifles to solve these mysteries. With deeply realized characters and writing evocative of the time and beauty of the West, Avenging Angel delivers a fast-paced historical thriller that will keep readers turning pages.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Setting up shop in rip-roaring Spanish Fort, Texas, in the early 1870s, Big Eddie Hager outfitted many cowboys in boots as they headed up the Chisholm Trail. Hager's fame and his company grew with the years, turning Hager Boots & Company, Incorporated, into a global legend.

Don't expect gunfights on dusty streets.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In 1882, less than ten years after the Northern Pacific Railroad established a terminus on Commencement Bay and helped create a city called New Tacoma, the community is thriving. Stores, stables, a new hospital, and the beginnings of a hotel to rival San Francisco's Cliff House are going up. In town, horse-drawn street cars are pulled on gravel roads, and there is even the beginning of a new telephone system. In Nell Tanquist's opinion, the town has everything it needs to rival nearby Portland-almost everything, that is, except a dress-making establishment. Nell wants to create clothes for beautiful women and clothes to make plain women look beautiful, but sewing by hand will only take her so far, and the one thing she lacks to become a proper dressmaker is a sewing machine. To earn money, she works at any job that comes her way; taking an uncomfortable and unforgettable wagon ride to nearby Steilacoom to sell things she's crocheted; serving punch at what begins as an elegant "at-home" party that turns into something less than genteel; and working at the Halstead Hotel. As welcome summer weather warms the town, she also finds time for fun-taking her sister to the pantomime and going to a tea party, and for a romance that threatens to scuttle her dream. A picnic with her friends on Commencement Bay nearly turns deadly, and an attempted kidnapping she witnesses on a dark and rainy night takes her into uncharted territory. Mr. Singer's Seamstress is full of pioneers, Chinese laborers, and members of the Puyallup Indian tribe-all people who settled New Tacoma. Most of all, though, it's Nell's story: the story of a girl determined to buck convention and follow her own path.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Based on an historical event, Trinidad Verdain's story reveals the courage, suffering, and lessons a twelve-year-old girl learns about Apaches and herself during her captivity with the Naiche-Geronimo band hiding, fighting, and raiding in northern Sonora. After breaking their surrender agreement with General George Crook in late March 1886, forty Apaches (eighteen men, fourteen women, and six children) led by Geronimo established a camp at the top of the Azul Mountains in western Sonora and began raiding north. They crossed the United States border with Mexico east of Nogales, Arizona, stole horses from the village of Calabasas, and on the morning of April 27, 1886, attacked the Artisan and Petra Peck Ranch about eight miles northwest of Nogales. They killed pregnant Petra and her two-year-old son, Andy, and were about to kill her niece, Trinidad, when Geronimo decided to spare the child and took her captive. Later that day Geronimo also let Artisan Peck live after he was taken while branding cattle. The Apaches carry Trinidad east deep into the Pinito Mountains where she witnesses an ambush of black soldiers before Geronimo leads the band back west to the Cibuta Mountains where they are attacked by Mexican militiamen who are mostly Tohono O'odham Indians. The Tohono O'odham militia suffer a humiliating defeat at the hands of the Apaches who show them Trinidad, challenging them to come take her. Instead the militia run away. The Apaches return east and establish a camp on the Raio Santa Cruz and in the Cocaospera Mountains while they raid for livestock and fight US Cavalry. Trinidad becomes friends with a boy, Garditha, near her age who teaches her to use a sling. She helps him learn Spanish; he helps her learn Apache. While practicing with their slings they are attacked by three vaqueros who want the boy's scalp for Apache scalp reward money, but Trini and Garditha drive the attackers off. Geronimo later leads the vaqueros into a trap using Trini for bait. With the US Cavalry hot on their trail, the Apaches split into three bands, the smallest being Geronimo's, which includes Trini, and they plan to reunite about a hundred miles southeast in the mountains at the confluence of the Yaqui and Aros Rivers. While going up the Raio Dolores, Geronimo's band is attacked by Mexican militia. Geronimo tries to escape with Trinidad behind him but his horse stumbles and they are both thrown off. Trinidad uses the fall as an opportunity to escape to the Mexican militia led by Don Patricio Valenzuela. After giving her story to the US Cavalry led by Captain Lawton and Mexican authorities, her Uncle Artisan returns her back to Nogales.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The law and circumstances never leave Sonny Burton alone for long. As the Great Depression lingers, a circus camps outside of Wellington, bringing with it suspicion and rumors of stolen cattle to feed the animals. The local Texas Ranger office is set to close, pushing Sonny's son, Jesse, out of a job. And Aldo Hernandez shows up on Sonny's doorstep asking for help. Aldo's cousin, Rafael, got into a fight and caused another man, Leo Dozier, to lose his spot in the CCC (Civilian Conversation Corps). Aldo thinks the sheriff is behind the trouble, and Sonny agrees to look into the situation-which thrusts him and Jesse into an investigation that exposes unknown corruption in his small town, and bigotry and hate that leads to a string of brutal murders. Edith Grantley has written Sonny several letters and has not received any answers. She is encouraged by one of her boarders to make the five-hundred-mile drive north to find out where she stands with Sonny after their brief relationship. On the way, Edith encounters a man set on terrorizing her for the entire journey.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "One man's quest to lose himself in the West." Roamer's long-planned winter snowshoe trek to the high, lonesome peaks of the Bitterroots takes a hard turn when the big loner of a woodsman finds his mentor, cantankerous mountain man Maple Jack, savaged, terrorized, and raving about the Alooknok, blood-eyed demons who absconded with his cold-weather mate, Winter Woman, a no-nonsense healer and midwife. It's up to Roamer to rescue her. He takes to the trail in the wake of a blizzard, battling winter-starved timber wolves and the unforgiving elements. Tracking him, the addled Maple Jack falls prey to a trio of greasy wolfers. Then the very demons Roamer seeks find him-and force him deep into the belly of the beast, a foreboding, grim place in the raw mountains where sunlight never shines. A brutal battle among friends, enemies, and Alooknok will seal their fates and haunt the few survivors . forever.
