ISBN:- A swirl of blue, with a silver star in the middle. He takes it from her palm, rolling it over realizing that it is small even in his own growing hands. “If you throw it into the sea,” he watches his mother pick up a flat pebble and toss it into the never-ending sea, his mouth agape as it skips across the water more times than he can count.
- Silver Wind is a perfect illustration of how complete a small-sized ship can be. With just 296-guests, beautiful suites and spacious public areas, Silver Wind is one of the cosiest and most intimate ships afloat today.

Book Description: Deputy U.S. Marshal Bass Reeves appears as one of ?eight notable Oklahomans,? the ?most feared U.S. marshal in the Indian country.? That Reeves was also an African American who had spent his early life as a slave in Arkansas and Texas makes his accomplishments all the more remarkable. Bucking the odds (?I?m sorry, we didn?t keep black people?s history,? a clerk at one of Oklahoma?s local historical societies answered a query), Art T. Burton sifts through fact and legend to discover the truth about one of the most outstanding peace officers in late nineteenth-century America?and perhaps the greatest lawman of the Wild West era. ø Fluent in Creek and other southern Native languages, physically powerful, skilled with firearms, and a master of disguise, Reeves was exceptionally adept at apprehending fugitives and outlaws, and his exploits were legendary in Oklahoma and Arkansas. A finalist for the 2007 Spur Award, sponsored by the Western Writers of America, Black Gun, Silver Star tells Bass Reeves?s story for the first time and restores this remarkable figure to his rightful place in the history of the American West.
