Roughin' It in Montana
"I felt my eyebrows curl, knew I had only minutes to escape the flames. In a blanket of smoke, I stumbled down the bluff to the river. A solid blanket of flame lay across the Flathead. I clawed up the trail—around the house—flames crackling around my boots—past the spring. Felt plowed ground. Forced open swollen eyes to peer into smoke. Dropped into my escape hole. Smoke. Leaped out and ran. Fire roared behind me. Make it…breathe…can make it…hit barbed wire, fell flat to crawl under. Lost my hat. Reached for it. Stupid.

Bury Him Deeper
Olivers dog whined and sniffed the body, licking his masters face. An August sun glared down, gluing Selmas blood-splashed dress against her body. She held her husband in her arms, willing him to live. He had attacked Tyrone so suddenly there hadnt been time to think. But now, every movement seemed in slow motion, Oliver vomiting, eyes pleading, his blood spurting more slowly from his chest. Tears blinding her eyes, Selma did not see Tyrone race to the lace and wash evidence from the weapon. Dont die, Ollie. You dont have to die. But he did. Slowly she slipped her hand from his. *** If Selma Withypol and Tyrone Zale had buried her husband deeper on that remote farm in Central Minnesota in 1933, if Oliver Withypols best friend hadnt interfered, if the deputy hadnt been so canny, they might have escaped the law. But instead, Selma finds herself in a local jail, the ridicule of the community, except for her former lover, Sheriff Ed Zorell, who manipulates the town officials to see the stranger, Zaleor whatever he calls himself, takes the rap, and helps Selma discover which of all her heart throbs really loves her for herself alone.

Pierre seeks his Indian wife and son. Jazelle's goal is to be the first white woman to cross America to the Far Sea. She trusts the amulet that saved her from the guillotine will protect her. At Sault Sainte Marie, drunken, lustful traders discover Jazelle is a woman and she's put up for bids. A storm on Lake Superior destroys their canoe. To reach Minnesota, they must cross the Savannah Portage-six days mired in swamp to their waists. At Rice Lake Pierre deserts them. There they meet Charles's cousin, Paul Bruneau, and are taken in by the friendly Chippewa at Mud River. Paul teaches Charles to trap, but they are lied about and driven from the village. Captured by Hadatsa Sioux, they realized they will be tortured and killed. Anishanaabe rips Jazelle's tunic from neck to waist. Will the amulet save them?
The Heart of the Mission
An illustrated, in-depth examintion of the avant-garde and politically radical Latino art of San Francisco's Mission District In The Heart of the Mission, Cary Cordova combines urban, political, and art history to examine how the Mission District, a longtime bohemian enclave in San Francisco, has served as an important place for an influential and largely ignored Latino arts movement from the 1960s to the present. Well before the anointment of the "Mission School" by art-world arbiters at the dawn of the twenty-first century, Latino artists, writers, poets, playwrights, performers, and filmmakers made the Mission their home and their muse. The Mission, home to Chileans, Cubans, Guatemalans, ...
