The Peace Region of British Columbia is unique in that pioneers still gather in the coffee shops. Its short history is filled with colourful characters whose indomitable spirit has shaped the landscape in a unique and often humorous way. This entertaining collection of poetry and prose by Peace Country author, A. G. Wayne Ezeard, portrays that spirit in an engaging and enjoyable read. Experience the excitement of the rodeo in "A Bull named Rock and Roll," follow the adventures of Wes Morgan in "Where Eagles Soar," and laugh over the rude awakening of Ben, the lovesick cowboy, in "Corra Leah." These stories and poems depict the pioneering spirit in all their many facets; laughter and tears, triumph and despair.
