It's 1886 in dusty Prescott, Arizona and young Georgia Belle is dragged into town with her two daughters to face the trial of her husband who is accused of murdering the marshal.

Locked up in the boarding house next to the jail, Georgia anxiously awaits the verdict and soon senses that nobody cares if her abusive husband is the real killer or not. Found guilty, her husband is hanged. In the meantime, the townsfolk gossip and speculate whether Georgia is really a gunslinger who rides the range. Forced to sell the ranch, she leaves her daughters with her father, and solicits the aide of a whorehouse madam who introduces her to Ben Anderson, a successful bounty hunter with an ego bigger than the Grand Canyon. Together, they have a son and build a working cattle ranch, but Ben has many enemies and Georgia can't shake an undeniable feeling of impending danger. After Georgia's dreams go up in smoke, she starts her life again in California, this time with her son.

Georgia must learn to deal with the difficulties of living in a man's world in the Old West, while managing to keep a few dark secrets along the way.

All This Thinking explores the deep friendship and the critical and creative thinking between Bernadette Mayer and Clark Coolidge, focusing on an intense three-year period in their three decades of correspondence. These fiercely independent American avant-garde poets have influenced and shaped poets and poetic movements by looking for radical poetics in the everyday. This collection of letters provides insight into the poetic scenes that followed World War II while showcasing the artistic practices of Mayer and Coolidge themselves. A fascinating look at both the poets and the world surrounding them, All This Thinking will appeal to all readers interested in post-World War II poetry.

The Euro: is it really the crowning achievement of half a century of European integration efforts? Quite the contrary: It seems that the Euro has now become a great threat to the European Union as such. This book explains the impact which the ongoing Eurocrisis has already had on the member states and their inhabitants; and it does so without assuming that the reader is already an expert on any of the topics addressed, making it a both thorough and convenient introduction to the problem area. Sooner or later, any professor teaching courses on international relations, international political economy, or European politics will have to field questions regarding the Eurocrisis. Considering the complexity and relative peculiarity of the topic, the instructor would need to have some sort of supplement to explain the story of the euro. The authors attempt to interpret the crisis and its effects by focusing on three key questions: 1. Why has the Eurocrisis been so severe? 2. Why choose austerity as the solution? 3. Why not abandon the Euro altogether? Exploring these questions, the book allows to develop one's own understanding of the crisis and the difficult policy challenges ahead as the EU grapples with a post-crisis future.

2019 Midwest Book Award for Nature 2020 High Plains Book Award Finalist 2020 Silver Nautilus Book Award Winner in Green Living and Sustainability  “Sustainable� has long been the rallying cry of agricultural progressives; given that much of our nation’s farm and ranch land is already degraded, however, sustainable agriculture often means maintaining a less-than-ideal status quo. Industrial agriculture has also co-opted the term for marketing purposes without implementing better practices. Stephanie Anderson argues that in order to provide nutrient-rich food and fight climate change, we need to move beyond sustainable to regenerative agriculture, a practice that is highly tailored to local environments and renews resources. In One Size Fits None Anderson follows diverse farmers across the United States: a South Dakota bison rancher who provides an alternative to the industrial feedlot; an organic vegetable farmer in Florida who harvests microgreens; a New Mexico super-small farmer who revitalizes communities; and a North Dakota midsize farmer who combines livestock and grain farming to convert expensive farmland back to native prairie. The use of these nontraditional agricultural techniques show how varied operations can give back to the earth rather than degrade it. This book will resonate with anyone concerned about the future of food in America, providing guidance for creating a better, regenerative agricultural future.
