This story is a biography of William Kittredge "Bill Kitt" (1876-1958) and his mercurial rise from every day cowboy to one of the largest ranchers in the West. It also includes a history of the areas in Oregon, Nevada, and California where he operated; and the old methods, equipment, and jargon used in raising livestock. It's a look back into the lives of many people including Cowboy Hall of Fame and Rodeo Hall of Fame inductees, a movie star, All-American football player, Congressional Medal of Honor Ace, Hollywood stunt man, U.S. and state leaders, and the tragic deaths of Oregon's top three officials.

A collection of revisionist essays edited by Harry Elmer Barnes dealing with the duplicity of American foreign policy leading up to the Second World War. Shows how the Roosevelt Administration deliberately manipulated events in Europe and Asia to bring the Us into the war; how Roosevelt was aware of the date, time and place of the Pearl Harbor attack before it happened (and deliberately let it go ahead); and much more. The authors show the deception perpetrated against the American people, who were 80 percent opposed to entering the war. 1. Revisionism and the Historical Blackout. 2. The United States and the Road to War in Europe. 3. Roosevelt Is Frustrated in Europe. 4: How American Policy toward Japan Contributed to War in the Pacific. 5: Japanese-American Relations, 1921-1941; The Pacific Back Road to War. 6. The Actual Road to Pearl Harbor. 7: The Pearl Harbor Investigations. 8: The Bankruptcy of a Policy. 9: American Foreign Policy in the Light of National Interest at the Mid-Century.

Blame Metro ... when urban renewal strikes!: When laws oppress

Hindman, Jo

Dust jacket notes: "This book, The Oregon Desert, is a hard one to define. A single paragraph may be a mixture of geology, history, biography, and rich desert lore. There is no other book about the Oregon desert and this one fills the void. Most of the material applies equally well to other Northern deserts in Idaho, Utah, Nevada, and neighboring states. Wild horses run through it; itinerant Irish sheepherders enrich it; all of the desert animals shyly and charmingly peep from its pages. Slow geological forces wend their relentless ways; the desert towns spring to life before your eyes and swiftly decay. The old-time cattle drives are clearly recalled. Here you learn what to look for and what to see in the desert. This book has no hero, except the desert itself. This wild, rough land does things to men who try to change it. 'The anvil wears the hammer out.' Little men withdraw into themselves and become smaller; mean men become meaner; but men with vision grow and expand to fit the wider vistas. So in the desert we have the worst and the best. Every page has its anecdote or quotable statement. There is enough material here to set up a TV writer for years. It is all purely American humor, becoming rare these days, since the snappy gag line has largely replaced the deeper, more subtle, more enjoyable humor you will find here. Almost everyone will like this book. It will charm and delight, and it will bring new knowledge of some kind."
