Bill Stockton
Called "perhaps the finest artist Montana has produced since Charlie Russell," sheepman Bill Stockton of Grass Range has written a wise, humorous, and sometimes shocking book about-in Stockton's words-"the problems of being a sheep and a few of the problems of the people who care for them." But, as one critic has written, "this book will do more than amuse you or give you moments of enjoyment or teach you about sheep. It will teach you something about yourself." Illustrated throughout with Stockton's masterful drawings, Today I Baled Some Hay to Feed the Sheep the Coyotes Eat is a classic of Montana literature.

The Lonely Man's Prayer
He was long alone in his home living among the rocks and trees. His music a coyote's howling his company a mountain breeze.

A Broken Web
A spider floated a silken thread In the grey of a misty morn To fetter a rose to a rosebud red, A bloom to a bloom forlorn.

With laugher and love-spells and witch-eyes of blue A girl in the township is waiting for you There is nothing that thrills like a hnadclasp of hers,
