From #1 New York Times bestselling author Patricia C. Wrede, the fantastic conclusion to her tale of magic on the western frontier.Eff is an unlucky thirteenth child...but also the seventh daughter in her family. Her twin brother, Lan, is a powerful double seventh son. Her life at the edge of the Great Barrier Spell is different from anyone else's that she knows.When the government forms an expedition to map the Far West, Eff has the opportunity to travel farther than anyone in the world. With Lan, William, Professor Torgeson, Wash, and Professor Ochiba, Eff finds that nothing on the wild frontier is as they expected. There are strange findings in their research, a long prarie winter spent in too-close quarters, and more new species, magical and otherwise, dangerous and benign, than they ever expected to find. And then spring comes, and the explorers realize how tenuous life near the Great Barrier Spell may be if they don't find a way to stop a magical flood in a hurry. Eff's unique way of viewing magic has saved the settlers time and again, but this time all of Columbia is at stake if she should fail.

In this book, his final work, Rodman W. Paul explores the settlement of the American West in the latter half of the eighteenth century. Lured by stories of open spaces, fertile farming, & grazing lands & by the attraction of gold & silver, people from many nations traveled westward by the thousands. Early migrants rode in stagecoaches & Conestoga wagons; their successors, on the transcontinental railroads, which linked western cities with their eastern counterparts. This comprehensive history describes not only population movement & mining development but also banking, farming, ranching, & other economic ventures. In a new foreword, Martin Ridge places Paul's history in the context of contemporary scholarship. "Paul has given us an authoritative, indeed a brilliant, history of the Far West & the Great Plains as he saw it, through the lens of miners, businessmen, & immigrants." - JOURNAL OF AMERICAN HISTORY. Rodman W. Paul was Professor of History at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena & the foremost historian of mining in the West. Among his many books are CALIFORNIA GOLD, MINING FRONTIERS OF THE FAR WEST, 1848-1880, & THE FRONTIER & THE AMERICAN WEST. Martin Ridge, who originally saw Paul's work through the press, is also a Professor of History at the California Institute of Technology & the author of WESTWARD EXPANSION: A HISTORY OF THE AMERICAN FRONTIER.
