In Wolf Country tells the story of the first groups of wolves that
emigrated from reintroduced areas in Idaho to re-colonize their
former habitat in the Pacific Northwest, how government officials
prepared for their arrival, and the battles between the people who
welcome them and the people who don't, set against the backdrop of
the ongoing political controversy surrounding wolf populations in
the Northern Rockies. The political maneuvering and intense
controversy that has defined wolves' recovery in the West makes
this a compelling and timely read.
From the mysterious disappearance of hijacker D.B. Cooper to
persistent rumors of bigfoot, this selection of thirteen stories
from Oregon's past explores some of the Beaver State's most
compelling mysteries and debunks some of its most famous myths.
Read about the mysterious disappearances of several people over the
years around Mount Emily, relive the gruesome discovery of three
murdered trappers near the Deschutes River, and learn why many
people believe an eleven-ton meteorite might be hidden in the
mountains of southwestern Oregon.
Massacres, mayhem, and mischief fill the pages of Outlaw Tales of
Oregon, with compelling legends of the Beaver State's most
despicable desperadoes. Ride with horse thieves and cattle
rustlers, duck the bullets of murderers, plot strategies with con
artists, and hiss at lawmen turned outlaws.
