Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The idea of writing a poetic tribute to the mountain men has been with me for a long time. These are the heroes of my youth. The pathfinders of our Manifest Destiny, the rare example of a President --- Thomas Jefferson --- who truly possessed great vision and acted upon it. This book is a pa…ean to all who ventured into the brave new world. Some trappers/explorers were obvious: Jim Bridger, Kit Carson and John Wesley Powell. Some were set aside, perhaps for another time: John Fremont, John Colter, Jedediah Smith, etc. All of these brave and resourceful mountain men were like Vikings --- with adventuresome spirit and remarkable courage. This writer has tried to keep a balance between emigrants in search of religious freedom, enduring extreme privation --- "On to Zion" --- and the vicious slaughter --- "Murders at Mountain Meadows." Like all human beings the Western settlers possessed both light and dark souls. The Western Vikings poems are written in free verse which hopefully enhances the narrative. With counsel from editor Shelia Oakes, complilation by my brother Robert Keyser and creative design by my publisher Michael Fraser, it was most enjoyable writing this work. I trust that you the reader will share that enjoyment. Michael J. Keyser This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Down The Road Again is Author Michael Keyser's fifth published book featuring 14 short fictional stories. If the definition of fiction is experience shaped by imagination, then many of these short stories are mostly derived from experience. They have been tucked away deep in my memory. Some…of the stories are based almost completely on imagination. The events portrayed never happened to this writer. These stories were the most enjoyable to write because there's no emotion incurred in the recall of the events. This writer believes that all short stories should proffer some guidance to our journey through this life. No preaching, but a conclusion, hopefully subtle, that may aid in our comprehension. Here are a few in this collection: The Biblical dictum of "render unto Caesar." The characters are compelled by greed and a thirst for adventure. An accurate portrayal of what happens in a religious environment with no financial controls on minister and his spending. A decent man, suffering from hubris, who made mistake after mistake, then the fatal one. The rescue of a business relationship demonstrates the power of an organization when its talent is properly managed. Extreme risk will usually carry an extreme penalty. Occasionally arrogance in politics is identified and dealt with. Taking a principled stand is difficult if pursued alone. I hope you enjoy reading these short stories as much as I did in writing them. Michael J. Keyser 2016 A.D. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. There are sixteen stories in this collection. With the exception of "Another Day of Infamy", all of the stories are fiction. "Infamy" is about 9-11 and the view of the New York skyline on September 12 from Paterson, New Jersey. During a very troubled time it is a quest for meaning. While a s…tory of fiction "The War Years" does portray the adventures of two young brothers in search of the world forever changed by the global war. This was a different America and its home front reflects it . Many readers have told this writer that The "War Years" is the best short story in the collection. Down the Road contains some humor also: "The Wedding Wrought from Mishap" and "Dashiell's Magnus Opus." These are recommended for the lighter touch. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The story of Jake McCarthy balances on the ethical question of whether it's justified to steal from the rich, who will never miss their treasures, and give these to those who need them most. While their robbery is meticulously planned, other unexpected problems face Jake and his partner Jim…Hastings: how to dispose of the loot and what to do regarding the innocent man who's been accused of their robbery. Against the background of these dilemmas, Jake and friends pursue a full life in Truckee Valley, Nevada: round ups, dealing with rustlers, breeding cattle, cornering the cattle market, buying adjacent ranches, parties, marriages, honeymoons, vacationing in the Four Corners, visiting San Francisco, dry fly fishing in Utah and Montana and sailing on Lake Tahoe. The story also includes the second generation McCarthy's and an education "back east." This item is printed on demand.
