This long-overdue biography fills crucial gaps in Paul’s story and recounts a life of almost constant adventure. “That Fiend in Hell” Soapy Smith in Legend By Catherine Holder Spude $29.95s Cloth · 978-0-8061-4280-7 · 304 Pages As the Klondike gold rush peaked in spring 1898, adventurers and gamblers rubbed shoulders with town-builders and gold-panners in Skagway, Alaska. The flow of riches lured confidence men, too—among them Jefferson Randolph “Soapy” Smith (1860–98), who with an entourage of “bunco-men” conned and robbed the stampeders. Soapy, though, a common enough criminal, would go down in legend as the Robin Hood of Alaska, remembered for his charm and generosity, even for calming a lynch mob. He was later killed in a shootout over a card game. “That Fiend in Hell”: Soapy Smith in Legend is a tour de force of historical debunking that documents Smith’s elevation to western hero.

Fiction The Wister Trace Assaying Classic Western Fiction By Loren d . Estleman $19.95 Paper · 978-0-8061-4481-8 · 232 Pages A master practitioner’s view of his craft, this classic survey of the fiction of the American West is part literary history, part criticism, and entertaining throughout. The first edition of The Wister Trace was published in 1987, when Larry McMurtry had just reinvented himself as a writer of Westerns and Cormac McCarthy’s career had not yet taken off. Loren D.

And, in this novel by award-winning author Denise Chávez, it is also a border town in New Mexico whose denizens’ longings are as powerful as they are, all too often, impossible. Between New Mexico and México, between Cinco de Mayo and the 16th of September, between the dreams and the realities of Comezón’s characters, something has to give. Each character is attempting to find love in this feverish fiesta called Life. And in the deft hands of Denise Chávez this tragicomic novel gives unerringly: pleasure, surprise, and the satisfaction of a tale well told.

Her eyesight is damaged, but as she “looks” back on the events of her past, she realizes she may not have seen them correctly when she was actually living them. Her husband’s death . . . was it a suicide? The bones unearthed on her uncle’s Montana ranch—are they of a steer? a mastodon? a dinosaur? Her beloved cousin Jessie—did she slip into addiction, and if so, where did the addict life take her? The dots of Lynette’s past are blurry, but she tries to focus and connect them and to feel her way toward a more accurate vision of the person she has been and may become. OUPRESS.COM History 13

Black Spokane The Civil Rights Struggle in the Inland Northwest By Dwayne A . Mack $26.95s Cloth · 978-0-8061-4489-4 · 216 Pages In 1981, decades before mainstream America elected Barack Obama, James Chase became the first African American mayor of Spokane, Washington, with the overwhelming support of a majority-white electorate.

Creating the American West Boundaries and Borderlands By Derek r . Everett $29.95s Cloth · 978-0-8061-4446-7 · 320 Pages Boundaries—lines imposed on the landscape—shape our lives, dictating everything from which candidates we vote for to what schools our children attend to the communities with which we identify.

Hightower $29.95s Cloth · 978-0-8061-4495-5 · 504 Pages The story of banking in twentieth-century Oklahoma is also the story of the Sooner State’s first hundred years, as Michael J. Hightower’s new book demonstrates. Oklahoma statehood coincided with the Panic of 1907, and both events signaled seismic shifts in state banking practices. Much as Oklahoma banks shed their frontier persona to become more tightly integrated in the national economy, so, too, was decentralized banking revealed as an anachronism, utterly unsuited to an increasingly global economy.

It then follows the course of American expansion westward, tracing the evolution of commerce and banking in Oklahoma from their genesis to the eve of statehood in 1907.
