The past has a funny way of catching up with a man. At least, that's what Captain Matthew Horn has found out. It's 1870, and for the thirty-five-year-old ex-Confederate officer, the War Between the States is a distant, but not forgotten, memory. Phantoms from what seem like another world plague his soul, and when he returns to his home after the war, Horn is faced with the stunning realization that life as he knew it before the war is dead to him now. His house has been pillaged, his wife and young child taken prisoner and believed dead-as are his hopes for a bright future. So Horn becomes a man of the mountains, a man hoping for an escape from his demons. When a winter storm suddenly unleashes its fury on the lonely man, he and his stallion, CoChise, find themselves trapped in a blizzard. After nearing death, Horn finally makes his way to the nearest town, only to discover that a wagon train is trapped on the pass-women and children left to suffer and fight to stay alive. Horn quickly gathers a search party and begins to lead them back up the trail. Mary Howard's "The Lone Trail" is a western adventure tale that weaves together the fates of a group of brave settlers, bonding them for life. Matt Horn will need to use all his knowledge and training to make it down The Lone Trail.

The Texas Sheriff takes a fresh, colorful, and insightful look at Texas law enforcement during the decades before 1960. In the first half of the twentieth century, rural Texas was a strange, often violent, and complicated place. Nineteenth-century lifestyles persisted, blood relationships made a difference, and racial apartheid was still rigidly enforced. Citizens expected their county sheriff to uphold local customs as well as state laws. He had to help constituents with their personal problems, which often had little or nothing to do with law enforcement. The rural sheriff served as his county’s “Mr. Fixit,” its resident “good old boy,” and the lord of an intricate rural society. Basing his interpretations on primary sources and extensive interviews, Thad Sitton explores the dual nature of Texas sheriffs, demonstrating their far-reaching power both to do good and to abuse the law.

Since the end of the Cold War, and especially since September 11, few issues have been more hotly debated than the United States' role in the world. In this hard-nosed but sophisticated examination, Colin S. Gray argues that America is the indispensable guardian of world order. Gray's constructive critique of recent trends in national security is holistic, rooting defense issues and prospective answers both in U.S. national security policy, broadly defined, and in the emerging international security environment. Colin S. Gray is professor of international politics and strategic studies at the University of Reading, England, and senior fellow at the National Institute for Public Policy in Fairfax, Virginia. He is the author of seventeen books, including Modern Strategy and Strategy for Chaos: Revolutions in Military Affairs and the Evidence of History.
