The Hartleys live on Texas land an ancestor received in a grant from the king of Spain, and they value their trees only slightly less than the members of their family. Beau Hartley continually has run-ins with Gaitor Morfew, youngest of a clan of troublemakers, who accuses Beau's brother Andy of being the timber pirate troubling the area. Beau joins Andy in searching for an illegal logging crew, but when Andy disappears in the same swamp that claimed the life of their Dad, Beau is left with a series of unanswered questions. Who’s pirating the timber on their land, and how can he clear Andy's name of the crime? It takes a devastating forest fire to resolve his dilemma.

Timber Pirates: A Novel of East Texas

The formerly noble, now downtrodden horse known as Dogmeat helps Annie and her family reassess their values.

The Absolutely Perfect Horse

A Novel of East Texas

During the Vietnam War, a Vietnamese boy must free the "Man in the Box," a captured American soldier, and bring him to safety. A powerful tale of friends in the midst of battle, "The Man in the Box" won the prestigious Oklahoma Sequoyah Children's Book Award in 1968. It remains as memorable today -- and its message of compassion and friendship as fresh -- as the day it was first published. Includes a Foreword by Ardath Mayhar from the 2006 edition, plus a new Publisher's Foreword by John Betancourt.
