One brother home from war. The other desperate to save him. A gripping journey together to the river's end. Shane has always worshiped his big brother, Jeremy. But three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan have taken their toll, and the easy-go-lucky brother Shane knew has been replaced by a surly drunk who carries his loaded 9mm with him everywhere and lives in the basement because he can’t face life with his wife and two small children. When Jeremy shows up after Shane’s football game and offers to take him to the family cabin overnight, Shane goes along — both to get away from a humiliation on the field and to keep an eye on Jeremy, who’s AWOL from his job at Quantico and seems to have a shorter fuse than ever. But as the camping trip turns into a days-long canoe trip down the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers, Shane realizes he’s in way over his head — and has no idea how to persuade Jeremy to return home and get the help he needs before it’s too late. In a novel at once gripping and heartbreaking, Steve Watkins offers a stark exploration of the unseen injuries left by war.

Nothing solved, he continually abuses her until she is driven to a nervous breakdown. Absorbing, shocking, filled with suspense and surprise, this compelling memoir will awaken you to the truth and the aftermath of what really happens when domestic violence occurs.

As a young child, author Paul Snyder became intrigued with his local establishment’s large ornate backbar. This led him to delve further into researching backbars, the backbone of Montana’s historic watering holes, their history, artistic woodwork, and the bars they graced. He felt compelled to capture as much history—and many photographs—as possible of the backbars remaining. These backbars influenced and are part of the development of Montana even before it became a state. They remain a combination of mystery and history in the transformation of Montana into statehood. This book takes a close look at these beautiful, often overlooked, silent witnesses to Montana’s history.

When COVID-19 drove Americans into isolation in 2020, long-time educator Mary Sheehy Moe turned to the "3 R's" she knew best: reading, reflecting, and writing. Love in the Midst of COVID, originating as a series of Facebook posts, is the result."I'm afraid. You are too, right?" she wrote in March. "I'm afraid the test I've always wondered about, the test for my generation like the ones my parents' generation faced, and their parents' before them, has come at last. Our Depression. Our World War II. Our polio." Love in the Midst of COVID is at once a portrait of a fearful, politically turbulent time and a montage of the reflections of a grandchild of Irish immigrants, a child of the '60s, and a fiercely doting grandmother. In between the lines is a crib sheet for the tests of any turbulent time.
