A small band of Wild West cowgirls rode into stardom around the turn of the 20th century, earning nearly as much as the cowboys in the traveling shows and often out-performing them. At a time when women were discouraged from working outside the home or exercising, the Wild West cowgirls became fabulously popular stars who drew huge audiences and fans. They are some of history’s forgotten women, and Goldie Griffith was one of that group of early professional female athletes, and she never shot a husband who didn’t deserve it.\u00a0 <\/em><\/strong>More<\/u><\/strong>….<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

This book combines two of my favorite things: hiking and history. It’s filled with tales of murder, innovative ideas, and daring deeds, and will give you new appreciation for the trails you love, and new ideas for trails to explore.

This was the heyday of the romantic and majestic Horseshoe Inn, a rustic but genteel lodge situated in a grand meadow framed by towering peaks. Five years later, in 1931, the Horseshoe Inn was the first of the park\u2019s lodges to disappear in the effort to bring the park back to its natural state. More<\/u><\/strong>….<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Imagine an insect as small as a grain of rice killing a tree that towers 70 feet above the forest floor. Seems impossible, doesn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n

Not when one mountain pine beetle joins forces with thousands of others to form an army of forest killers.<\/p>\n

Perfect for schools and libraries and anyone who wants to make sense of the world around them.<\/strong><\/p>\n
