The Jesuit Missions : A Chronicle of the Cross in the Wilderness by Thomas Guthrie Marquis Loyal Books These little books were designed to cover Canadian history in a scholarly and readable fashion.. This volume, as suggested in the title, folows the Jesuit missionaries through North America as they attempt, with little success, to convert the natives of the new world. Snow-Blind by Katharine Newlin Burt Loyal Books A bit of a menage-a-quatre in a remote cabin in the wilderness as fugitive Hugh, his younger brother Pete, nursemaid and cook Bella, and now the newly arrived snow-blinded young Sylvie who had been snatched from near death in the snow by the heroic but moody Hugh. Because of her blindness, Sylvie is led to believe her rescuer to be a handsome and dashing hero; his younger brother to be but a young lad of 14; and Bella a matronly old maid. But Sylvie would, in time, form her own image of the clan and attempt to bring them together as they were destined to be split apart.

The transactions in the plain of Moab before crossing the Jordan River (21:21–36).The period comprehended in the history extends from the second month of the second year, as measured from the Exodus, to the beginning of the eleventh month of the fortieth year, in all about thirty-seven years and nine months; a dreary period of wanderings. (Introduction from Wikipedia) The Mountains of California by John Muir Loyal Books First published in 1894, this wonderful travelogue by a famed naturalist and conservationist still remains a book that delights and informs its readers.The Mountains of California by John Muir recounts the author's exploration of the Yosemite Valley, Mount Whitney, the famed sequoia forests and King's Canyon among other places of immense natural beauty. Written in his characteristic zestful style, with a deep understanding and respect for nature, the book is a treasure trove of geography, geology, botany, biology and sheer love of the magical planet we live in. His descriptions of the flora, fauna and magnificent scenery around him are amazing word pictures that bring this fabulous landscape to life for the reader.John Muir was of Scottish-American origin and one of the first environmentalists who believed in preserving nature above the claims of trade and commerce. He believed that we human beings must save the wilderness and habitat of others we share this earth with. Some of his
