Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, within the book we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Excerpt from Happy Valley: A Story of Oregon I Awoke that morning in the gray, dusty, little cattle town of Two Forks with the terror of life shaking me like a palsy. My lips and tongue were parchment. A scum ridged my teeth. My whole body was loathsome. I tried to sink into unconsciousness, but my senses were maddeningly alert. I turned over in bed and fixed my gaze on the wallpaper. It was yellowed with age, blistered, and cracked. The design, a sickly, greenish vine which wriggled its way around a brown lattice, seemed a drunken, staggering thing. I traced the design to where it began and ended, began and ended, in dizzying reiteration. A cracked blister moved, a small brown bug crept horridly out from underneath. I shivered back into the sleazy bed ding, and tried frantically to fix my eyes on something less nauseating.

Born in Yakima, Washington, she was the daughter of William A. Monroe, Doctor of Medicine, and great-granddaughter of George Shannon of the Lewis and Clark Expedition.
She wrote popular press articles on a wide variety of subjects, including an early portrayal of a (fictional) female business tycoon, a notable 1904 study of Mary MacLane"s literary inspiration (which Monroe found in Sei Shonagon"s work), and Oregon rancher William "Bill" Hanley. Many of her books are based on her childhood experiences growing up in the semi-arid, cold ranch-lands of eastern Washington state.
