Was Sheriff William Brady a willing pawn in the hands of a crooked political faction or was he an honest man dedicated to law and order? After his extensive research, Donald R. Lavash thinks Brady deserves a more realistic evaluation of his part in the Lincoln County Was in New Mexico. In 1873, crime and violence were rampant in Lincoln County, New Mexico. Land fraud, cattle and horse stealing were common. Outlaws, including Billy the Kid, swarmed in to join hands with dishonest citizens. Although Brady tried to stem the growing tide of anarchy, his efforts ended when he was ambushed by Billy the Kid and his gang. This book is not only a biography of a man but the history of an era in the American Southwest. More information on this controversial period will be found in these other Sunstone Press books: "Alias Billy the Kid" by Donald Cline, "Sheriff Pat Garrett's Last Days" by Colin Rickards, "The Death of Billy the Kid" by John William Poe, "The Real Billy the Kid" by Miguel Antonio Otero, "Stalking Billy the Kid" by Marc Simmons, "The Authentic Life of Billy the Kid" by Pat Garrett, "Kit Carson's Own Story of His Life" by Blanche Grant, and "Dynamite and Six-Shooter" by Jeff Burton. Donald R. Lavash was a historian on the staff of the New Mexico State Records Center and Archives and was a specialist in American Southwest history. An author of numerous articles and the book, "A Journey Through New Mexico History" also published by Sunstone Press, he received his Ph.D. from the International Institute for Advanced Studies.Binding Type: Paperback

I really enjoyed this book of short stories
Format: Paperback
I loved this book. It was the first time
I ever read anything by Simone De Beauvoir.
It is difficult but I think the title story
was my favorite, watching the character go
down hill so rapidly and in such detail
showing her growing obession was oddly
relatable, her self hatred towards her body
towards the end of the story
I would not try and presume to state what the
"moral" of the story was... but that is exactly what I am
going to do about now
check it....................
I think that the main Character should have
developed a concept of self outside her marriage
her marriage was her identity and when that fell
apart she had nothing...no sense of self
it was a compelling read a little uncomfortable
but I like being a littel uncomfortable when I read............

Middle-aged women in crisis
Format: Paperback
Excellent writing, but rather depressing (but perhaps accurate?).

Breath taking novel
Format: Kindle
I am not a fan of both fiction and non-fiction novels, my English is pretty bad as well. yet, here I am, and I'm planning on reading more in the future only because of this book. It's heartbreaking and breathtaking at the same time. Not saying the book is beautiful or any like that, but you will find yourself in a painful place when you read this. A painful feeling which makes you feel like you got stabbed in the heart but all the air in your lung is stuck out, no voice screams out and you can’t do anything with it.

Strong story, Weak book spine
Format: Paperback
The book itself was wonderful. Otherwise the physical structure of the book is weak and the pages began to fall off the spine reading halfway into the book. Recommend the book, and recommend another physical copy of the book.

The inner view of hopeless romantic heartbreak.
Format: Paperback
The stories could be depressing but somehow, they rise above. It's the beautiful soulful clear intelligent writing, I guess.
These stories will ring true for any reader that has lost their favorite significant other.
The middle story is especially amazing to me. It consists of the running inner dialogue of a woman on the edge. Nearly mad she rambles in the cleverest of ways.
Ms. De Beauvoir is [was] a marvelous philosopher, writer, woman.
