Book Description
The dying man offered Katrina and Jonah Fletcher two thousand in gold if they could get the ten-year-old girl Sanjean safely to his ranch near Jump's Well. They couldn't turn down the man's dying wish, or leave a young girl to be gunned down, so, never dreaming of the consequences, they accepted the mission. But the old man died before he could tell them the whole story. They knew they were in someone's gunsights but who or why was a mystery. McGea soon made his intentions known as his men dogged the pair and threatened their lives at every turn. Far more sinister and worrying, though, was the shadowy figure following them in the background, leaving a trail of slit throats. The odds against them seemed unbeatable, but Katrina and Jonah, with the aid of Sooey, a gentle giant, had just the kind of steely determination and raw courage that might see them through. Even so, sudden death was to be their constant companion. Jack P. Jones offers the third in a series of hard-hitting, fast-paced Westerns involving a young sharpshooter with a Winchester and a sister with grit enough for all three.

Evolutionary Ecology Across Three Trophic Levels
Author: Warren G. Abrahamson
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 9780691012087
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 476
Book Description
In a work that will interest researchers in ecology, genetics, botany, entomology, and parasitology, Warren Abrahamson and Arthur Weis present the results of more than twenty-five years of studying plant-insect interactions. Their study centers on the ecology and evolution of interactions among a host plant, the parasitic insect that attacks it, and the suite of insects and birds that are the natural enemies of the parasite. Because this system provides a model that can be subjected to experimental manipulations, it has allowed the authors to address specific theories and concepts that have guided biological research for more than two decades and to engage general problems in evolutionary biology. The specific subjects of research are the host plant goldenrod (Solidago), the parasitic insect Eurosta solidaginis (Diptera: Tephritidae) that induces a gall on the plant stem, and a number of natural enemies of the gallfly. By presenting their detailed empirical studies of the Solidago-Eurosta natural enemy system, the authors demonstrate the complexities of specialized enemy-victim interactions and, thereby, the complex interactive relationships among species more broadly. By utilizing a diverse array of field, laboratory, behavioral, genetic, chemical, and statistical techniques, Abrahamson and Weis present the most thorough study to date of a single system of interacting species. Their interest in the evolutionary ecology of plant-insect interactions leads them to insights on the evolution of species interactions in general. This major work will interest anyone involved in studying the ways in which interdependent species interact.
