From one of the greatest Western writers of all time, Lee Nelson, comes Born to Rope. the flinch in a horse's, the drop of a boy's eyes: This is a rare book, attentive to the simple detail out of which great stories flow. from mustang bands sweeping up the bands sweeping up the hidden draws and ridges of the high, desolate San Rafael Swell to a horse-trading oasis hidden deep in an auto-wrecking yard on the outskirts of Spanish Fork, Utah, Nelson finds voices, elegant in their terseness, of people you never knew but should know. This is the story of Michael Diamond's coming of age, of finding grace in tragedy. Reviews - In Born to Rope, I found something that I didn't know I'd lost. Not since I was a child reading King of the Wind did I find myself caring this much about a horse. - Warren Hatch, Salt Press I am not an avid novel reader. I would rather read magazine articles, search the Internet, or find other sources of facts or information. However, your book Born to Rope caught my eye. I read slow, but your book seemed to read fast. I am new to horse ownership, owning 4 horses, including a very fast grandson of Easy Jet. I have never attempted to rope but a few of my neighbors rope in a corral/arena just behind my place and I have enjoy watching their efforts from my deck during the summer. Your descriptions of Max were very painted. the emotions of the human characters were easy to feel. It was an awesome book! By the end I was wishing it was longer. Thanks for the great read! - Jeff Rowley
This novel-based on Lee Nelson's actual LDS mission to Germany is a pleasing, uplifting journey of self-discovery. The plot twists and heart-touching scenes rival any of those found in the author's Storm Testament series. "Elder Spencer W. Kimball laid his warm, strong hands on my head and in a raspy voice, proceeded to set me apart as a missionary. He blessed me that I would be protected from harm, that I would enjoy good health, and that if I kept the commandments and remained faithful I would be instrumental in bringing a thousand souls to the truth." That promise weighed heavily on young Lee Nelson as he began his mission to Germany in the 1960s, but also served as a motivator for him in accomplishing the work of the Lord. The powerful message will serve as motivation for young readers to serve missions themselves.
Horatio Nelson is Britain's greatest naval hero; Trafalgar, in 1805, her greatest naval victory. Nelson and Napoleon, first published in 2005, is the story of how Britannia came to rule the waves for more than a hundred years. Christopher Lee re-examines the myths of Trafalgar, plotting Napoleon's overweening ambition to invade England and Nelson's single-minded dedication to seeking glory. He shows how Villeneuve had worked out Nelson's famous plan of attack, and demonstrates how the battle could easily have turned the other way. Lee also paints a vivid picture of the protagonists: particularly of the creation of a national hero in Nelson and his intense rivalry with Napoleon. 'Christopher Lee's vivid and painstaking account cuts through the folklore, replacing it with wonderful insights into early nineteenth-century Britain and Europe.' Daily Express
