Dreamers they were, sailing out into the west in quest of they knew not what-puppets in the game of destiny. What splendid courage it must have needed to sail in their little cockle-shells of vessels over that untravelled sea, with its dangers all the more terrifying because unknown... -Lawrence J. Burpee, in the Introduction From the discovery of Hudson Bay and the search for the mythical Northwest Passage to the first overland journey to the Pacific, Canadian historian Lawrence Burpee makes the story of the exploration of northwestern North America come alive in this classic book, first published in 1908. Meet Samuel Hearne, who survived Indian massacres to discover the mouth of the Coppermine River in 1771 and proved the nonexistence of a water passage across the continent; the adventurous La V rendrye family of explorers; path-finding fur trader Peter Pond; astronomer and surveyor David Thompson; and others who contributed to the European settlement of North America. LAWRENCE J. BURPEE (1873-1947), a beloved popularizer of Canadian history, was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia. In addition to authoring numerous books of North American exploration, including Pathfinders of the Great Plains and The Discovery of Canada, he was also the founding editor of Canadian Geographical Journal and among the founders of the Canadian Historical Association. He served on the board of the Boy Scouts of Canada and was a member of the Royal Society of Canada and the National Geographic Society.

Judge Daniel Hall despised Ann Williams beyond all others. For three years, he perpetrated devious deeds in his insane desire to locate the woman he resented and Noah Swift Hawk, her Native American lover. In his arrogance, he left clues. Will his past betray him? Noah Swift Hawk and Ann Williams arrived at the end of the path Roscoe Bacon had traveled twenty years before. The lovers and their growing family are entirely deprived of knowledge as to what Judge Hall might have set into motion to locate and dispatch them from the living. However, they are confident that Judge Hall hasn't lost his desire or plans to kill them. Noah and Ann, therefore, ascended the Sangre de Cristo Mountains toward friends, foes, hardships, and joys and attempted to find their way across unknown lands to the western sea.

This one-volume history quickly became the standard text for the college student and reference for the general reader, unmatched for generations as the only comprehensive history of the state. This fourth edition, revised and updated, preserves the spirit and intelligence of the original. Incorporating the results of years of scholarship and research, this edition gives fuller attention to such topics as the Native American experience in Nebraska and the accomplishments and circumstances of the state’s women and minorities. It also provides a historical analysis of the state’s dramatic changes in the past two decades.

No Sail on the Western Sea takes two favorite novellas by the well-known Chinese author Ma Yuan and combines them into a single volume. With the shared location of Tibet, both of these stories delve into the intricacies of personal relationships and emotions. A kaleidoscope which reflects the heightened sensation of adventurous lives acted out on the Tibetan plateau, these stories reflect the avant-garde storytelling technique for which Ma Yuan is known. In the title story, No Sail on the Western Sea, a group of young Chinese artists traveling in the sparsely inhabited region of western Tibet are stranded when their truck breaks down. Trapped in the middle of nowhere, each of the group reacts in a different way to the impending disaster they've landed in. Ma Yuan assembles and reassembles their varied experiences like a jigsaw puzzle as he describes their varied interaction with the land and the Tibetan people. By utilizing a fluctuating narrative structure, Ma Yuan is able to explore a variety of different personal relationships through the lens of different characters and himself as author. Rather than focusing on the group, The Master which is the second story in this volume, looks at the individual. The author/narrator participates in the story of a Chinese artist in Lhasa who abandons his Chinese girlfriend to marry a Tibetan woman for access to valuable Tibetan paintings. A tale of almost gothic horror and sacrifice, The Master features a plot that is always shifting in time and space and is never what it seems.
