From the Pulitzer Prize–winning and bestselling author of The Shipping News and Accordion Crimes comes one of the most celebrated short story collections of our time. Annie Proulx's masterful language and fierce love of Wyoming are evident in this collection of stories about loneliness, quick violence, and wrong kinds of love. In "The Mud Below," a rodeo rider's obsession marks the deepening fissures between his family life and self-imposed isolation. In "The Half-Skinned Steer," an elderly fool drives west to the ranch he grew up on for his brother's funeral, and dies a mile from home. In "Brokeback Mountain," the difficult affair between two cowboys survives everything but the world's violent intolerance. These are stories of desperation, hard times, and unlikely elation, set in a landscape both brutal and magnificent. Enlivened by folk tales, flights of fancy, and details of ranch and rural work, they juxtapose Wyoming's traditional character and attitudes—confrontation of tough problems, prejudice, persistence in the face of difficulty—with the more benign values of the new west. Stories in Close Range have appeared in The New Yorker, The Atlantic Monthly, Harper's, and GQ. They have been selected for the O. Henry Stories 1998 and The Best American Short Stories of the Century and have won the National Magazine Award for Fiction. This is work by an author writing at the peak of her craft.

At the core of this personal journal of George Harry Cross lies the raw story of Wyoming's early days. From the last of the Indian Wars to the passing of the Frontier and beyond, Cross shares his life experiences in a manner that no researcher today could ever hope to duplicate. Enhanced by his straight-forward writing style, this book is not only informative but entertaining as he describes his encounters with people from every walk of life, the ups and downs of pioneer family life, and the trials and tribulations of cattle ranching. George Harry Cross was born into a family of bankers, lawyers and other professional men. Although he was assured of a bright future by following this family tradition, he chose to fulfill his dream of becoming a cowboy. He traveled from his home in Montreal, Canada to Colorado where his adventures began. As a "greenhorn," he learned the hard way how life was lived in a land of few comforts and even fewer laws. He trailed his first herd of cattle from Colorado into Wyoming and, by 1883, had established his Braehead Ranch in Upper LaPrele Valley near Douglas. At the time of his death in 1946, his was the largest shorthorn cattle ranch in the country. He was also involved in the betterment of his community, establishing a school and post office in the valley. He later helped with the organization of Converse County, serving on the first board of commissioners. In addition, Cross served as senator from Converse County in the third, fourth, fifth, ninth, tenth and eleventh State legislative sessions, earning the respect of his fellow legislators as they enacted the necessary laws to govern the new state of Wyoming. His was truly a life well-lived.
