Terror on the Emigrant Trail. In the vast wilderness of the early West, a tribunal must decide the fate of one member of their party. Was it murder or self-defense? Will it be banishment or a hanging. Halfway along the two-thousand mile journey of the Oregon Trail, as the Townes Party approaches the South Pass, they realize the trail holds obstacles beyond the steep cliff faces, the treacherous river crossings, and the miles without water. Obstacles they could have never predicted. An outfit of rough men are journeying back east, carrying with them their prizes to sell to Easterners. When they encounter the Townes Party bound for Oregon's green valleys, they may have found another prize or two. If the Townes Party is going to make it to Bridger's Fort and beyond, they'll first have to survive An Incident at South Pass. If you love traditional Westerns steeped in history and full of action, then saddle up your best riding horse and pack your wagon light. This trail goes on forever. But be sure to bring plenty of powder and shot, because you never know what dangers you'll encounter on the way through the South Pass. Grab your copy today!

LifeMaps for Midlife Women is a motivational self-help book for the 37 million Baby Boomer women who are between the ages of 40 and 60, that "midlife" time of transition out of youth and into maturity. What makes this book different from others is that rather than focusing merely on menopause, this covers seven areas of life that are important to midlife women: body, mind, relationships, work, money, space, and spirituality. Also, instead of just providing information, this book guides readers through activities for mapping out their own plan of action for positive change in their lives. After reading this book each woman will be able to put her fears about aging to rest and awaken to the joy of having grown beyond the craziness of youth. She will be able to recognize this as a time of life that offers wisdom and freedom that allow her to embrace exciting new possibilities. And, finally, she will create her own LifeMap, a powerful personal guide for living midlife to the fullest.

"James Chisholm was a staff writer For The Chicago Tribune sent to report on the gold strike made in the late 1860s at one of the great historical features of the continent?South Pass on the western trails. His journal, illustrated by himself, Is a graceful, observant narrative full of the real essence of frontier mining camp life."?Library Journal. "Chisholm had a lively sense of humor, An engaging frankness, and a fine eye for landscape. He was also a candid social critic."?Rocky Mountain News. "Lovers of the Old West will buy Chisholm's Journal and never part with it."?Pacific Historical Review. "If South Pass failed to produce gold in the paying quantities James Chisholm's miners thought it would, Chisholm himself produced finer, more lasting gold in his journal account of Wyoming's short-lived gold rush. His journal exudes the smell of sagebrush and scenic panoramas, Of torrential rain storms and night packing, Of being small in a big land, and of honest, earthy people who, In business-like fashion, went about the task of risking life, limb, health, and what small fortunes they had, To hit the big one. Chisholm sees with unpretentious eyes. His is an honest appraisal from a detached journalist, leavened with self-effacing humor. His prose is clean and clear. it can be read aloud and remembered."?Charles E. Rankin, editor of Montana the Magazine of Western History. Lola M. Homsher was director of the Wyoming State Archives and Historical Department.

In 1822, before Jedediah Smith entered the West, it was largely an unknown land, “a wilderness,” he wrote, “of two thousand miles diameter.” During his nine years as a trapper for Ashley and Henry and later for the Rocky Mountain Fur Company, “the mild and Christian young man” blazed the trail westward through South Pass; he was the first to go from the Missouri overland to California, the first to cross the length of Utah and the width of Nevada, first to travel by land up through California and Oregon, first to cross the Sierra Nevada. Before his death on the Santa Fe Trail at the hands of the Comanches, Jed Smith and his partners had drawn the map of the west on a beaver skin.

In the entire Rocky Mountain intermountain region there is no place that was more traveled in the nineteenth century than the famed 'South Pass', a fortuitous spot along the American continental divide in west-central Wyoming. There people and animals could scurry like ants across the crest of the foreboding Rocky Mountains, and live to tell about it. It was as if the Creator, having surveyed His work in this part of the world, pressed a thumb into the landscape to provide a place for simple farmers, immigrants, and some ne'er-do-wells to pass through on their way to the promised land in the far west. It was on the west side of the South Pass that the Oregon Trail and the Mormon Trail, having existed side-by-side for over 1100 miles, now diverged. The Mormons and the California Forty-niners headed southwest as soon as they cleared the pass; the people bound for Oregon and Washington headed northwest at the same juncture.It was at this pass that a rockhound named Charley Grissom met the Cecil McGowan family, and all of their lives were changed forever.

Back in the 1800's it was impossible to get from Missouri over to California. Explorers tried for many years but it wasn't until they discovered South Pass that it became possible. South Pass was the only way to get from east to west in the mid 1800's. The pass contributed to other important historical developments such as the Oregon Trail, the California Trail, the Mormon Handcart Trail, and the United States was able to expand west. With the discovery of gold, South Pass City became the largest town in Wyoming for a short period of time and made history when Esther Hobart Morris became the United States' first female Justice of the Peace. In South Pass: The Gateway to the West we learn history can be made from such unexpected places.

Excerpt from book: CHAPTER III HOW JOSEPH SMITH BECAME A MONEY-DIGGER The elder Smith, as we have seen, was known as a money- digger while a resident of Vermont. Of course that subject was a matter of conversation in his family, and his sons were of a character to share in his belief in the existence of hidden treasure. The territory around Palmyra was as good ground for their explorations as any in Vermont, and they soon let their neighbors know of a possibility of riches that lay within their reach. The father, while a resident of Vermont, also claimed ability to locate an underground stream of water over which would be a good site for a well, by means of a forked hazel switch,1 and in this way doubtless increased the demand for his services as a well-digger, but we have no testimonials to his success. The son Joseph, while still a young lad, professed to have his father's gift in this respect, and he soon added to his accomplishments the power to locate hidden riches, and in this way began his career as a money-digger, which was so intimately connected with his professions as a prophet. Writers on the origin of the Mormon Bible, and the gradual development of Smith the Prophet from Smith the village loafer and money-seeker, have left their readers unsatisfied on many points. Many of these obscurities will be removed by a very careful examination of Joseph's occupations and declarations during the years immediately preceding the announcement of the revelation and delivery to him of the golden plates. 1 The so-called " divining rod " has received a good deal of attention from persons engaged in psychical research. Vol. XIII, Part II, of the " Proceedings of the Society for Psychical Research " is devoted to a discussion of the subject by Professor W. F. Barrett of the Royal College of ...
