The life of Charles E. Conrad and the history of Fort Benton, Montana Territory, are so intertwined that the story of one cannot be told independently of the other. At the time Conrad came to Fort Benton, the tiny settlement was in its infancy. Charles Conrad and his brother William soon developed the most extensive merchandising and supply transportation system in all the west. As river transportation died out with the coming of the railroad, Conrad moved from Fort Benton to Kalispell. It took him 34 years to build his fortune and his empire, yet in less than 20 years it was gone.

LaVere Redfield was a prolific hoarder. When he died in 1974, his estate was estimated at more than $70 million. Executors found 680 bags of silver coins and 407,000 Morgan and Peace silver dollars in his Reno mansion. A local Reno legend, Redfield gambled regularly in Virginia Street casinos. He survived robbery and burglaries of his home, which contained false walls to store millions of silver dollars. Hating banks and paper money, as well as big government, Redfield opted to serve a prison term for income tax evasion rather than pay his debts from his ample fortune. Join author Jack Harpster for this first book-length study of this unconventional man behind the folklore and the myth.

Silver dollars, sometimes known as standards or cartwheels, have had a long and unsettled existence. Morgan silver dollars were minted continuously from 1878 to 1904, but in quantities that fluctuated wildly from year-to-year. Then they were minted again for a year in 1921. The history of the US silver dollar is intricately tied to specific acts of congress, changes in America's political climate, and the availability of silver throughout history. Add the various discrepancies between mints and dies and you've got a fascinating and complex numismatic story. This book is the most thorough and detailed reference to date on Morgan and Pearce silver dollars. Including innumerable die varieties and in-depth historical context, "The Comprehensive Catalogue and Encyclopedia of U.S. Morgan and Peace Silver Dollars" is the only silver-dollar reference book that fully explores the politics and culture surrounding the coins. There is a chapter devoted to detailing every legislative act of Congress that affected silver dollar coinage, and another dedicated to carefully describing the century-old silver-dollar minting process-from mining to striking. With descriptions and photos of over 800 Morgan die varieties and extensive discussions of error coins and the design process, this book is the only truly complete guide to Morgan and Peace silver dollars.

The last thing Dannie needs is a Victorian gentleman on her ranch, playing cowboy while she's trying to save her family's livelihood. Will high stakes and high emotions lead to heartbreak? Evan Rounsevell, second son to the Marquess of Rothwell, is running as far from his family and responsibilities as he can. His fascination with cowboys takes him from English shores to the Arizona desert, but the days of showdowns are over, and Tombstone, Arizona, is a respectable town. With no funds left, and no desire to call on his affluent family for rescue, Evan seeks a position as a cowboy at a ranch on its last leg. Daniella Bolton's fiancé left when the drought of 1893 crippled the KB ranch, but that's just fine by her. She doesn't need a man to help her save her family's land. Especially not an Englishman who looks down on her style of living, like Evan does. She loves her life on the ranch, and no outsider could ever understand what it means to be loyal to the land and her family's way of life. Being a cowboy is harder than Evan thought, but as he works to earn his place on the ranch, his heart opens up to the beauty of the desert... as well as that of Dannie Bolton. Watching Evan fight for the ranch she loves makes Dannie realize that not all men are afraid of hard work and troubled times, and loving Evan might be just the salve her wounded heart needs. But when Evan's family summons him home right when Dannie needs him most, the feelings of betrayal from her former fiancé's flight return tenfold. Does Evan dare risk his tenuous relationship with Dannie to fulfill his family responsibilities? Or will leaving Arizona be the worst mistake of his life?
