Librarians of the West: A Quartet

By Mark Warren, Candace Simar, Charlotte Hinger, et al.

Four brand-new stories by award-winning authors.

"Too Much Dancing Going On" by Randi Samuelson-Brown is the account of an independent-minded young woman in a wide-open Montana who loved books and horses, and later a certain literary young man.

When Lyle Hardiman, easy-going, illiterate, Montana cowboy, accidentally blunders into the new library with his horse (he thought it was a livery), he meets the new librarian, Miss Rebecca Spark, and sets into motion a chain of events that will ensure the little town of Burnt Creek a place in the history books. With the help of the local saloon/shop sweeper, Lyle will discover a path laid out for him by destiny . . . a path that leads to the heart of Miss Rebecca Spark, in "The Cowboy, the Librarian, and the Broomsman" by Mark Warren.

In "The Book Mama" by Charlotte Hinger, Lady Jane Woodruff is stranded with an abusive husband in a harsh new country and relies on the wisdom of an ancient African American woman to guide her to freedom."

Fourteen-year-old Pearl Ellingson learns life's hard lessons as she struggles to start a library in frontier North Dakota in "Terrible and Wonderful" by Candace Simar.
