Southeastern Colorado was known as the northernmost boundary of New Spain in the sixteenth century. By the late 1800s, the region was U.S. territory, but the majority of settlers remained Hispanic families. They had a complex history of interaction with indigenous populations in the area and adopted many of the indigenous methods of survival in this difficult environment. Today their descendants compose a vocal part of the Hispanic population of Colorado. Bonnie J. Clark investigates the unwritten history of this unique Hispanic population. Combining archaeological research, contemporary ethnography, and oral and documentary history, Clark examines the everyday lives of this population over time. Framing this discussion within the wider context of the changing economic and political processes at work, Clark looks at how changing and contesting ethnic and gender identities were experienced on a daily basis. Providing new insights into the construction of ethnic identity in the American West over hundreds of years, this study complicates and enriches our understanding of the role of Hispanic populations in the West.

Purgatory; A Place of Pruning Book 1 available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. This book is a story of beginnings, of the past, present, and future of one woman and one man. Shaylee and Davon's lives would intersect over repeatedly, being 15 years apart. Never truly apart as they both vowed to make the world a better place.Shaylee and Davon would give life through Hope and Love to a lost and dying world, moving them even closer to the truth as God's strength is made perfect in weakness!Shaylee and Davon would come together at the edge of time, as evil angelic beings would place dangerous illusions before them trying to stop what God has ordained.Real or fictional, the mystery is yours to decide!As you, enter two worlds; one seen and one not seen; a world taking truth into a world of fiction and fantasy and a world turning fiction and fantasy into a world of reality.What a mystery that unfolds the faith of two souls made one in the darkest of seasons of human experience. Two people on two separate paths taking four decades to end two journeys as God merged them into on journey, one single path paved with prayers, tears, blood, and death of the Saints before them. Cloaked in a mysterious world of Angels and Demons, two worlds one seen and the other never seen by most except for the special ones, the ones with the power to face all that is evil and yet not fall as so many others have. They are the ones that storybooks are written after. A people with no time for wealth, power, and fame; who has time for such stories when a battle is raging in two worlds, one seen and the other not seen.Through decades, battles of unseen epic destruction would be birth between universes playing out in the spirit world between Lucifer and God, as angelic beings would battle over God's creation, Humankind.You will never be the same in the journey through Purgatory - --A place of purging, -A place of pruning, -And a place of displaying the fruits of the spirit.Along this journey, Shaylee, an apostle of Hope and Davon, an Apostle of Love, would be exploited through the evil darkness of demons, the supernatural, and cults alike. "Could the earth we live on, be a place between heaven and hell, could it be your purgatory as Jesus prays for you?Demons, evil men, evil women, and immoral leaders, would offer up Hope and Love as sacrifices for sin's victory through abductions, drugs, homelessness, prisons, murders, seduction, wealth, power, and fame in a never-ending war to destroy Hope and Love leaving Humankind in despair.In all the sufferings, temptations, trials, and tribulations, Shaylee and Davon seemed to be at their end, consumed with no hope yet goodness would always prevail in the end.

The hallways are empty, the school day long over, the din of lockers and youthful laughter have dissolved into silence. It's as if the very walls are waiting.

Most humans aren’t aware of the vampires and werewolves that walk among them. They don’t realize the danger that they face, but Duncan knows about the horror that waits in the darkness. He hunts the monsters, and he protects the innocent. Duncan just never expects to become a monster. But after a brutal werewolf attack, Duncan begins to change…and soon he will be one of the very beasts that he has hunted. Dr. Holly Young is supposed to help Duncan during his transition. It’s her job to keep him sane so that Duncan can continue working with the FBI’s Para Unit. But as Duncan’s beast grows stronger, the passion that she and Duncan have held carefully in check pushes to the surface. The desire that is raging between them could be a very dangerous thing…because Holly isn’t exactly human, not any longer. As the monsters circle in, determined to take out all of the agents working at the Para Unit, Holly and Duncan will have to use their own supernatural strengths in order to survive. But as they give up more of their humanity and embrace the beasts within them both, they realize that the passion between them isn’t safe, it isn’t controllable, and their dark need may just be an obsession that could destroy them both.
