Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Fleeing her abusive husband, a wife and mother learns to truly live—and love—again in this historical romance from the award–winning author of Knightfall. In Virginia, 1883, some things you can run from…but some you must fight. Pauline Ray is on the run and she won't get far. With thirty-four dollars, two small children to feed, the cold coming in fast, she has no idea how she'll hide her tracks from her monster of a husband, let alone support her family. But Pauline is done with convention, and with nothing from her old life worth preserving, not even her name, she's free to become a whole new person. All she has to do is singlehandedly turn a run-down homestead into the haven she and her children need, in a town full of wagging tongues and watchful eyes. But one man is watching her with more than judgment. Pauline would never have considered his scandalous proposal in her days as an obedient, suffering wife and daughter. But "Lizzie" might dare to accept him—his love, his work, and his secrets—and wrest her story toward a happily ever after all her own... “Shoup once again proves adept at taking on serious themes, this time in the second Green Valley romance…which addresses domestic violence with care and sensitivity.”—Publishers Weekly

Spirits of the Rockies
Author: Courtney W. Mason
Publisher: University of Toronto Press
ISBN: 1442626682
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
The BanffBow Valley in western Alberta is the heart of spiritual and economic life for the Nakoda peoples. While they were displaced from the region by the reserve system and the creation of Canada's first national park, in the twentieth century the Nakoda reasserted their presence in the valley through involvement in regional tourism economies and the Banff Indian Days sporting festivals. Drawing on extensive oral testimony from the Nakoda, supplemented by detailed analysis of archival and visual records, Spirits of the Rockies is a sophisticated account of the situation that these Indigenous communities encountered when they were denied access to the Banff National Park. Courtney W. Mason examines the power relations and racial discourses that dominated the eastern slopes of the Canadian Rocky Mountains and shows how the Nakoda strategically used the Banff Indian Days festivals to gain access to sacred lands and respond to colonial policies designed to repress their cultures.
