The Photo Contest is over and the winning photo for the book cover is the kneeling shot while shooting off-camera with the Remington revolver lying on the grass in the foreground. It was fun.

Blood on the Prairie - A Novel of the Sioux Uprising

Ol' Toby Ryker planned on attending the New Ulm, MN Trade Fair today, but shucks, it didn't happen. The Trade Fair, held at Turner Hall, is like a fur trapper's rendezvous with everything from hides to clothing and costumes, weapons, knives, all the truck that a fur trapper would need in the early 1800's. Oh, well, as Ryker would say, "Maybe next year."

Blood on the Prairie - A Novel of the Sioux Uprising





We'll try this again as the last upload disappeared into cyberspace. We finally snared ol' Ryker last night as he was peeking into windows at the condo. At gunpoint we forced him to pose for some new publicity shots. One of these will be used on the back cover of the hardcover sesquicentennial edition. Would appreciate your feedback as to which picture you prefer to see on the cover. Thanks. Steve

Many thanks for your great support of this title, both in paperback and Ebook. Work continues on the hardcover sesquicentennial edition for you collectors to place in your personal libraries. All we have to do yet is corner ol' Ryker and get him to stand still long enough that we can get a picture of him for the cover flap. He's an elusive old fart!
