Big Hole Valley History book Volume III Now Available.

The Bookstore will be hosting a reception and book signing with the Big

Hole Valley Historical Society on Saturday, November 15th from

1:00-3:00. Volume III of the Big Hole Valley history book is now

available. Together, the members of the historical society and the

communities along the river bring the reader a new chapter in the

History of the Big Hole series, introducing their towns, businesses,

and families with stories yet untold.

The west never grows old in a valley where neighbors still lend a hand

during branding and haying, where frigid winter temperatures make horses

more practical than tractors for feeding livestock and where cell

service is mostly non-existent. The hot water where Lewis and Clark

parboiled their dinner still springs from the ground just as hot as in

1806. By virtue of the remote character of the land, and the pristine

wilderness and picturesque pasturage, the people have come to resemble

the country: resilient, confident in their tradition, and at ease in

their sense of place under a big sky.

Few places in Montana retain their character the way the Big Hole Valley

has.  Please join us as we celebrate the release of Volume III -- Call

683-6807 if you have any questions or would like to reserve your copy.
