    The 277 page novel, Blood Red Horse, was written by K.M. Grant. It is a historical fiction that takes place during the Third Crusade, the story beginning at Hartslove Castle in England with a quarrel between two of the main characters, William and Gavin, sons of Sir Thomas de Granville, the head of the castle, and a young orphaned girl, Ellie.

    The region we call the Southwest is generally bordered at its western edge by the Colorado, Gila, and San Juan Rivers. Its eastern border is comprised of Rio Grande River and the western Plains. Traditionally, researchers have placed the southern boundary at the U.S.-Mexican border, but this distinction is largely artificial because Southwest groups have many cultural similarities with northern Mexican tribes. The Great Basin provides the northern border of the region.…

    Within the universe, there are celestial bodies that join together in solar systems that make up galaxies, galaxies that create everything tangible and visible and real; however, within the heavens and all that is palpable and perceptible and concrete, there is so much more: the intangible. At times this is presented as luck or fortune, and sometimes, it shows itself as love. Yasunari Kawabata’s “The White Horse” (1963) is a ravishing run through the intangibility of love, and of loss. It is the tale of a man who sits alone, pondering and worrying about the life of his son, and about the affection he once felt for a girl when he was young.…

    In the Pacific Northwest there are five different species of salmon: Chinook, Pink, Dog, Coho, and Silver. All of which are anadromous basically meaning that they live in both fresh and salt water. These fish start life hatching many miles upstream on the gravel beds in rivers on the pacific coasts of North America, and Asia, were they grow into smolts as they are carried downstream to the sea. Once at sea the salmon spend one to seven years maturing. Then for reasons unknown to scientists, a homing impulse triggers them to make an astonishing journey back to the very river or tributary they were hatched in (Salmon). At least that is how it is supposed to work. When Lewis and Clark made their famous expedition nearly two centuries ago they marveled at the “great quants. of Salmon” they had seen in the Columbia River in Washington State, which in 1860 produced sixteen million…
