This murder mystery is set in the American West during the traumatic post-
Civil War period. It begins when San Francisco detective Drew Steele is hired
by newspaperman John Rudd to go to the Arizona territory to try to find a long-lost
Spanish land grant that is rumored to cover the entire Arizona territory. What at
first seems like a routine investigation, turns out to be an adventure that
threatens to cost Steele his life. He confronts hired killers, marauding Indians, and
a beautiful young woman who is unwilling to take no for an answer.
This fast-paced story has more twists and turns than a runaway river in flood stage:
a mysterious Chinese whore house at the edge of town that nobody will admit ever
visiting, a treasure map that is supposed to lead to gold but actually
leads only to a deadly trap, and a famous Apache warrior who is feared by everyone,
but who may be Steele's only hope.

dBASE III Plus has been around for many years, but it is still one of
the most popular database programs on the market. dBASE the Easy
Way by Dr. Everett Murdock is a fast-start, no-nonsense introduction to
the basics of dBASE. The book's main approach is to introduce each of dBASE's

the book as a reference to dBASE's main features.
The book includes the following sections: introduction to the main
concepts of databases in general and to dBASE III Plus in particular,
learning how to use dBASE, dBASE's main features, with
tryouts for each (includes a number of pictures illustrating the program's
main options), planning and creating a database, database
structures, database planning considerations (it also provides
a tryout of starting and new database), displaying data (including
using dBASE's LIST and DISPLAY options, printing and status options,
sorting data, (includes a tryout of the INDEX option), and creating
and printing reports, includes tryouts for creating label forms and other
report forms).
