Solzanna of Lansheer was Sorceress Advisor and Protectress of Imperial Peace in the vast Lansheean Empire. Although Feraco the Great held an uneasy throne, the threat of Solzanna’s power discouraged many a would-be rebellion. But the winds of change were blowing, and a dastardly plot was brewing in the Imperial City. Jago the Dalo was spoiling for trouble when he stumbled across it. Bored to death in somber Lansheer, he readily agreed to pit himself against the empire’s great sorceress. But as the challenge unfolds, he begins to suspect that the gods were meddling again, and perhaps he had bitten off more than he could chew.

In The Trail of Gold and Silver, historian Duane A. Smith details Colorado's mining saga - a story that stretches from the beginning of the gold and silver mining rush in the mid-nineteenth century into the twenty-first century. Gold and silver mining laid the foundation for Colorado's economy, and 1859 marked the beginning of a fever for these precious metals. Mining changed the state and its people forever, affecting settlement, territorial status, statehood, publicity, development, investment, economy, jobs both in and outside the industry, transportation, tourism, advances in mining and smelting technology, and urbanization. Moreover, the first generation of Colorado mining brought a fascinating collection of people and a new era to the region. Written in a lively manner by one of Colorado's preeminent historians, this book honors the 2009 sesquicentennial of Colorado's gold rush. Smith's narrative will appeal to anybody with an interest in the state's fascinating mining history over the past 150 years.

Mother Trigedgo is one of the old Cornish clairvoyants that tell fortunes by cards and by pouring water in your hand and going into a trance. Her prophecy says that a man will take a long journey out West where he will find two treasures, one of Silver and the other of Gold. He must choose carefully or he'll lose them both. He will fall in love with a beautiful lady, but must be aware or she'll go with another man. Finally she predicts that a man will meet his death by the hand of a dear friend. Driven by this prophecy, a young westerner called Denver Russell heads off to Arizona and by the occurrence of strange circumstances he finds a place known as the Apache Leap where some of the fortune teller's words begin to make sense.

A thousand-year history of how China’s obsession with silver influenced the country’s financial well-being, global standing, and political stability This revelatory account of the ways silver shaped Chinese history shows how an obsession with “white metal” held China back from financial modernization. First used as currency during the Song dynasty in around 900 CE, silver gradually became central to China’s economic framework and was officially monetized in the middle of the Ming dynasty during the sixteenth century. However, due to the early adoption of paper money in China, silver was not formed into coins but became a cumbersome “weighing currency,” for which ingots had to be constantly examined for weight and purity—an unwieldy practice that lasted for centuries. While China’s interest in silver spurred new avenues of trade and helped increase the country’s global economic footprint, Jin Xu argues that, in the long run, silver played a key role in the struggles and entanglements that led to the decline of the Chinese empire.

That they are now in their eighth decade in life and are living a normal and peaceful existence is in itself one of Gods small miracles.
