Publisher's Notes
American lore has slighted the cowgirl, although at least one can still be found in nearly every ranching community. Like her male counterpart, she rides and ropes, understands land and stock, and confronts the elements. Jordan traveled 60,000 miles in the West, talking with authentic cowgirls to compile this portrait. 108 photographs.

From the celebrated to the notorious, Gwendolyn Leick's fascinating new work offers over 300 A-Z entries on the people who shaped the history of the Near East between the First Dynasty of Kish in the 2500's B.C. and the end of the Selucid period in the 200's B.C. These readable yet authoritative mini-biographies include rulers, officials, royal consorts, merchants, bankers, military leaders, priests and scholars, and bring to life some of the best-known events of the ancient world.

The Rise and Rule of Tamerlane
by Beatrice Forbes Manz
This is the first scholarly study of Tamerlane, the great nomad conqueror who rose to power in 1370 on the ruins of the Mongol Empire and led his armies on campaigns of unprecedented scope, ranging from Moscow to Delhi. As the last nomad ruler to unite the settled and steppe regions of Eurasia, Tamerlane marks the transition from the era of nomad conquest and rule to the modern ascendency of the settled world. The author examines Tamerlane both as a supremely talented individual whose career changed the world in which he lived, and as an example of a nomadic dynastic founder. The study analyzes Tamerlane's methods of control over both nomad and settled and the relations between the two groups.
