SPUR AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR ROD MILLEROUTLAWMAN: The Life and Times of Matt Warner Matt Warner was an outlaw. And a lawman. In a word, an outlawman. Once among the most notorious bandits in the Old West, riding with Butch Cassidy and other famous outlaws, Warner was wanted for crimes across the Southwest, the Northwest, and the Mountain West. After serving time on overblown charges following a shootout, Warner changed his prison stripes for a badge and served as a town marshal, justice of the peace, and deputy sheriff. Whether wearing a black hat, a white hat, or some shade of gray, Warner outlived the Old West but never abandoned its wild and wooly ways. Follow the trail through Brown’s Hole, Robbers Roost, and other outlaw enclaves as a mysterious old man tells the outlawman’s story in a rundown barroom once owned by Matt Warner himself.

"[An] engaging mix of history, legend, and romance." -Publisher's Weekly starred review "A fast-paced Arthurian novel with broad appeal." -Historical Novels Review On the path toward greatness, even a hero makes mistakes. Armed with his magical sword and otherworldly horse, Gwalchmai proves himself the most feared and faithful warrior of Arthur's noble followers. But while defending the kingdom, he commits a grave offense against the woman he loves, leading her to disappear from his life and haunt his memories. With his trusted servant, Rhys, a commonsense peasant, Gwalchmai tries to find her in the Kingdom of Summer, where Arthur has sent him. But an unexpected and most malevolent force of evil and darkness is loose-that of his mother, the witch-queen Morgawse-and Gwalchmai finds that the secrets of his past may deny him peace... In the second book of Gillian Bradshaw's critically acclaimed trilogy, Sir Gawain comes to life as Gwalchmai, startlingly human yet fantastically heroic. PRAISE FOR Gillian Bradshaw "Compelling...splendid...vibrant...exhilirating, a novel seduces us into accepting sorcery and sanctity in King Arthur's England." -New York Times Book Review "Courage, darkness, magic, cruelty and kindness, justice and liberation...all the things that you have come to relish in the tales of King Arthur and his brave knights." -Yankee Romance Reviewers "This engaging and enchanting retelling of the Arthur legend will appeal to adults and younger readers alike." -Publishers Weekly

Lawyer-turned-writer Anne Meadows and her husband, Dan Buck, set out to solve the mystery of what really happened to Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. With the tenacity of Pinkerton agents, the couple tracks the outlaws and the enigmatic Etta Place through South America, where they fled in 1901. Meadows and Buck rove Argentinian pampas, Chilean deserts, and Bolivian sierras; pore over faded newspapers and musty documents; exhume skeletons with the aid of forensic anthropologist Clyde Snow; unearth eyewitness accounts of Butch and Sundance?s final holdup and the Bolivian shootout; and examine letters by the bandits and interviews by the Argentine police who investigated their activities. Information about William T. Phillips, who claimed to be Butch Cassidy, is also included. ø While filling in the blanks in the Wild Bunch saga, Meadows explores the nature of truth and discovers how myths are made. She updates the search with a new afterword to this edition.
