{"product_id":"american-copper-9781609531218","title":"American Copper","description":"As Evelynne Lowry, the daughter of a copper baron, comes of age in early 20th century Montana, the lives of horses dovetail with the lives of people and her own quest for womanhood becomes inextricably intertwined with the future of two men who face nearly insurmountable losses--a lonely steer wrestler named Zion from the Montana highline, and a Cheyenne team roper named William Black Kettle, the descendant of peace chiefs. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAn epic that runs from the Sand Creek Massacre of 1864 to the ore and industry of the 1930s, \u003ci\u003eAmerican Copper\u003c\/i\u003e is a novel not only about America's hidden desire for regeneration through violence but about the ultimate cost of forgiveness and the demands of atonement. It also explores the genocidal colonization of the Cheyenne, the rise of big copper, and the unrelenting ascent of dominant culture. Evelynne's story is a poignant elegy to horses, cowboys both native and euro-american, the stubbornness of racism, and the entanglements of modern humanity during the first half of the twentieth century. Set against the wide plains and soaring mountainscapes of Montana, this is the American West re-envisioned, imbued with unconditional violence, but also sweet, sweet love. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Unbridled Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/03\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781609531218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/2015 pg. 36\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2015 pg. 72\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/28\/2015\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Shann Ray","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36661900968092,"sku":"9781609531218","price":13.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_7c316330-b9ed-46eb-b894-d1534d55fb38.jpg?v=1603900531","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/american-copper-9781609531218","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
