Softcover. Condition: Good. An extended reflection on the pleasures and wisdom of golf, "Golf Beats Us All" will satisfy the philosopher lurking in every avid golfer and make the golfer smarter and wiser about himself and his game. Author Joe Amato has long been fascinated by the myriad of pleasures offered by golf. And like any player, he remains intrigued by the fact that golfers find such pleasure in a game that causes so much pain, wastes so much time, and whose outcome is of utter insignificance. He offers an intelligent and searching conversation that invites readers to think about their relation to a game that makes them angels and fools.

Book First Edition
Softcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. Hired to create adventures for an elderly business luminary named David, who no longer drives but is still vibrant and tenacious, author Marilyn Mitchell soon discovers that David is in the early stages of dementia.The stories from their years together are humorous, heartbreaking, exasperating, and joyous. No sentimental tale of hopeless tragedy, "Dancing on Quicksand" is a spirited, often rollicking memoir that builds around the themes of adventure, the evolution of a sustaining friendship, and the life-lessons Mitchell learns from a man who is losing his brilliant mind. "Dancing on Quicksand" unveils the universal nature of truth and respect while demonstrating that even in troubled times there are abundant opportunities for laughter and for understanding the essence of being human.Although "Dancing on Quicksand" is not an instructional guide for supporting those who have dementia, a cache of practical advice can be gleaned from its pages--innovative ideas about how to cope with what can be described fairly as an epidemic.

Book
Softcover. Condition: Good. Wyoming has one of the most exciting histories of any western state. Authors Craig Sodaro and Randy Adams are born story-tellers who exemplify the maxim that good history is never dull.From prehistory through the Indian wars, from the wild years of territorial Wyoming up to the conflicts and coming of age in the twentieth century, Wyomings past comes to life in these pages.The emphasis of the book is on the people of Wyoming, how they lived and what they lived for, how events outside the state affected them, and how they affected the rest of the world. The authors expertly draw connections among seemingly widely separated events to illuminate the seamlessness of historys web. By developing a deeper understanding of the past, the reader comes away with a greater sense of the states identity today.The title, "Frontier Spirit," was not chosen lightly; probably more than any other state in the lower forty-eight, Wyoming still typifies that spirit. This book shows why.

Book
Softcover. Condition: Good. Within the canyon country of New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, and Colorado, the Anasazi built an elaborate system of carefully engineered roadways. Many of the roads connect to sites in Chaco Canyon, New Mexico, and required an enormous amount of human labor to create. Nearly 200 miles of roads have been documented inthe past fifteen years by a handful of investigators, but the function and significance of these roads remain a mystery. Kathryn Gabriel, a journalist and researcher with a lifelong interest in Chaco Canyon and the Anasazi, examines Chacoan road systems, using analogies drawn from such diverse phenomena as the use of road metaphors in Pueblo Indian traditions and astronomical alignments of southwestern sites. "Roads to Center Place" is more than a guide to road corridors and archaeological features; it is a map to a lifeway.

Softcover. Condition: Good. Stephen, Alexander Macgregor (illustrator). First Edition. Alexander M. Stephen, a self-taught anthropologist and an associate of Indian trader Thomas Keam, lived among the Hopi during the late nineteenth century. Having excellent rapport with the tribal elders, Stephen asked them the meaning of symbols on the pots he was collecting for Keam and recorded these interpretations in a catalogue entitled "Pottery of Tusayan: Catalogue of the Keam Collection." This manuscript is printed here in its entirety for the first time and is illustrated from the Keam Collection, which is now housed at the Peabody Museum, Harvard University. Alex Patterson then incorporates Stephens interpretations and cultural stories into a unique alphabetically arranged guide to the eighty-four symbols on the collected pots.

Softcover. Condition: Good. "For Love of Wildness" is Terry Groszs eagerly anticipated sequel to the stories he told in his first book, "Wildlife Wars." Picking up where he left off, Grosz, who was a conservation officer for California and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for more than 30 years, begins this new book with his move from the state to the federal level, where the cases are often bigger and more complex. Groszs stories are action-packed, yet always infused with his love of wildlife and the great outdoors, and he makes the urgent point in his book, as he did in his career, that our failure to protect our fragile natural resources is the same as stealing from our children and our childrens children."Having been unable to put the first book down until the last shot was fired and the last poacher was clapped in irons, Im eagerly awaiting morefrom the safety of a reading lamp."

Softcover. Condition: Good. Ken Marsh will take you on a flyfishing adventure as only a native who has lived and flyfished his entire life in Alaska can. You wont find a catered, cozy flyfishing camp with protective, professional guides in these stories. Instead, youll join Ken and his sometimes crazy, always interesting friends as they flyfish through the seasons in the real Alaska. Through it all, theyre on a search for solitude, for the untrammeled, and for a place where angler and fish can meet in one moment that cant be taken back or forgotten. Its the same search all flyfishers are on, but the scale is, like the state itself, much grander than most of the Lower Forty-eight.

Book First Edition
Softcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. The West is changing, and these days natives and newcomers alike need a lot of basic information to cope with issues that arise from increasing population and changing land-use regulations on both the local and federal levels."The Good Neighbor Guidebook for Colorado" is the essential resource for anyone living in Colorado today. The advice contained in this indispensable guide could save you thousands of dollars and years of heartache. The authors organized the book into six sections that include: land stewardship; basics of Colorado law; working with local governments; issues of recreation, public lands, and tribal lands; protecting our western heritage; and avoiding and resolving problems.In Colorado, at the dawn of the 21st century, the trend seems to be away from traditional, strong, relationship-based communities toward pseudo-communities that often are a collection of short-term alliances to fight common enemies. The re-establishment of strong neighbor relationships, with appreciation not only for shared values but for diverse opinions, can reverse this unfortunate trend. "The Good Neighbor Guidebook for Colorado" offers every citizen the tools to build better communities.

The text is keyed to the maps that follow (from Escalante to Grand Wash Cliffs). Included is a bibliography, and maps by Llyn French. "Everything in this book is immensely interesting to all who participate in a Canyon voyage, probably because, being human, we find the natural scene too strange and overwhelming to be fully comprehended and enjoyed for its own sake alone." ~ from the Foreword, by Edward Abbey.
