Cheyenne Song


Book Description

A novel of unexpected passion from the author who “brings the West and her characters to life and gives her fans hours of true reading pleasure” (Romantic Times). Fort Reno, 1878. Glory Halstead faced her captor with the same pride and courage that had seen her through hardship and bitter scandal and vowed to be strong. She didn’t know what Two Arrows intended to do with her. But she knew her life had changed forever that fateful night she had witnessed three hundred Cheyenne fleeting captivity at Fort Reno. Two Arrows wanted vengeance—and he would get it by making another man’s woman his own. Yet as captain David Krueger of the U.S. cavalry rode hard and fast with his troops to recapture the woman he loved and the Cheyenne he hated, Glory was losing her heart to a man, a people, and a new life. Now as they made the brutal journey through the harsh, unforgiving wilderness, Glory and Two Arrows would discover passion as primal and unyielding as the land they were destined to tame . . . “Gentry’s best book yet!”—Janelle Taylor, New York Times bestselling author Praise for Georgina Gentry and the Panorama of the Old West series “Another wonderful battle-of-the-sexes novel . . . a most enjoyable read.”—Booklist (starred review) “Sharp, sexy repartee . . . filled with wit and ribald humor, double-crosses and heated passion, this is the most delightful Western of the season.”—Romantic Times “Ms. Gentry writes tantalizing love scenes by creating an ambience of romance.”—Rendezvous "Nobody does it like Georgina Gentry!"— Barbra Critiques

Music in the Westward Expansion


Book Description

Over 400,000 people moved their families in search of a better life in the American West during the Westward Expansion. The pioneers made room for musical instruments with their guns, food, and tools, while taking only the minimal necessities that would fit into modest wagons. During what seemed like an interminable dusty journey, music was often the sole source of light and happiness for these exhausted travelers. This book examines the roles of music in the Westward Expansion and the diverse cultural landscape of the Old West, including northern Cheyenne courtship flute makers, fiddle-playing explorers, dancing fur trappers, hymn-singing missionaries, frontier flutists, girls with guitars, wagon-driving balladeers, poetic cowboys, singing farmers, musical miners, and preaching songsters.
