If there was ever a 'ring-tailed roarer' of the backwoods of New Mexico, he was Quentin Hulse, who lived and worked most of his life in the Gila River country of southwestern New Mexico - but his reputation spread far and wide.  Hulse led a lion hunt, witnessed a point-blank shooting, and appeared on a tourist postcard and souvenir license plate in the 1950s.  With compassion, Nancy Coggeshall tells the compelling biography of a rural western rancher constantly adjusting to the inroads of modernity in his traditional way of life.  She brings this unique westerner, and New Mexican to life.

Crashers (Hardcover)

$24.99

Haynes's compelling first thriller takes familiar elements—a mysterious airplane crash, a bent FBI agent, a deadly female spy—and mixes them with the world of National Transportation Safety Board aviation disaster investigations. When pathologist Leonard Tommy Tomzak, sees a TV report of a nearby jetliner crash, he rushes to the site via helicopter. As other NTSB personnel make their way to the crash scene from around the country, Tommy and his local crew secure the site. The forensic details fascinate but aren't for the weak of stomach. Haynes nicely integrates several subplots involving terrorism. The slam-bang crash landing of a conclusion will leave readers anxiously awaiting the promised sequel
