Chip, of the Flying U
B. M. BOWER (1871 - 1940)
Cattleman
J.G. Whittemore, owner of the Flying U ranch in Montana, trusts the
task of meeting his sister at the train to only one man, Chip. Chip’s
not too keen on women. In his experience they come in only a few types:
prissy “sweet young thing”, annoying cowgirl, or old maid that wants to
drag him to church. He isn’t prepared for Miss Della Whittemore, the
“Little Doctor.” She turns the ranch upside down, but can she turn Chip
head over heels? (Summary by A. Gramour)

Lonesome Land
B. M. BOWER (1871 - 1940) Val
had come to Montana to marry a cowboy named Manley, envisioning a life
of wedded bliss, freedom, and was anticipating happiness in her adopted
part of the country. She would soon learn that the winters could be
cruel and lonesome for a woman living on a ranch which was situated
miles from the nearest neighbor. She would learn that her husband spent
most of his time drinking. And she would learn that everybody has their
own methods of dealing with the harshness and loneliness of the land she
has come to call home. Val is determined to re-invent her notions about
men and women, her new duties in life, and life as it existed in the
relatively new West. At every turn, her will and her strength are
tested. Would she find the strength within herself to overcome the
hardships, or would she succumb to the reality of her surroundings? -
