<p>"I started reading it at eleven o'clock one night and didn't put it down until four in the morning!"  That's what a bookstore owner said about ONE NIGHT IN A BAD INN, a 2007 High Plains Book Award finalist.  It is the fascinating true story of two colorful families who lived through extraordinary times.  Rich in history and character, this remarkable saga follows a notorious Welsh matriarch, two daring fugitives, a heroic Irish doughboy, and a beautiful, inspiring lady as they overcome scandal, war, murder, and mayhem on the parched plains of eastern Montana, in the raucous mining town of Butte, and on the bloody battlefields of the First World War.  It is a great read through which the reader learns intriguing history through the lives of very intriguing people who happen to be the author's ancestors.  Pictures and maps are exclusive to the print editions.  A dramatis personae is at the author's web site.</p>
