It Won't Go Through Skin
Mark M. Peyton is a naturalist with multiple advanced degrees; however, he would describe himself as more of a storyteller and teacher. He is an essayist who blends his personal experiences with information to both entertain and educate the reader. This collection of essays and trips down the rabbit holes of history is a collection of stories involving his experiences working his way through college as a bartender during the 1970s. The multiple trips down the rabbit holes of history help place this time and this bar in the wider context of the history of an amazing place and an amazing people: the Oglala Lakota. As you read this book, you'll laugh, you'll cry, and hopefully, you will learn as Peyton takes you on a history journey to the Favorite Bar of 1972 and the magic city of Chadron, Nebraska.

Endangered and Threatened Species of the Platte River
The tension between wildlife protection under the Endangered Species Act and water management in the Platte River Basin has existed for more than 25 years.

The leading factors attributed to the decline of the cranes are historical overhunting and widespread habitat destruction and, for the plovers and terns, human interference during nesting and the loss of riverine nesting sites in open sandy areas that have been replaced with woodlands, sand and gravel mines...
