Sand River

4.6 stars on 72 reviews

Western

Jack Grice had spent his life running. He grew up at a wild time and did what he had to do to survive. The law took one view of it; he took another. And the law wouldn’t get off his back. He did time, broke out of prison. He went north, hoping to leave the past behind. But the past followed him. And now there were murder charges. Whichever way he turned, trouble was right there. This is his account of what happened.

Jack was born in Charleston in 1861. His parents died early of cholera and his guardian died when he was fifteen, leaving him penniless and alone. He went west and got work as a cattle drover. He shot an outlaw who was trying to rob him. Another outlaw, named Ibbetson, got away alive.

Later, he ran across a cowboy called Skeeter on a cattle drive. They met again in a saloon and Skeeter asked him to help drive a herd of horses. Jack didn’t know they were stolen. He was arrested, went to jail. During his trial, he broke out of the courthouse with another inmate, who shot a courthouse constable. After that, a rope was waiting.

He went north and got work on a ranch called Sand River. For a while it looked like he’d outrun trouble. He did the job and stayed clean. But up there, range wars were being fought. Ranchers hired range detectives to handle trouble. To some, they were hired killers. One of them was Ibbetson. When they met again, Jack knew it wouldn’t end well. His past had arrived.

Reading may be as easy as ABC, but remembering what you did isn’t. Find out what you can do about it.

A great book or idea is only as good as the person who remembers it. How many times have you been excited to share something you read, only to have the concepts slip away from you like an elusive morning mist?

Being thrilled to learn something new is natural. Unfortunately, so is forgetting. The scientifically plotted rate at which you’re expected to do this is called the Forgetting Curve.

German psychologist, Hermann Ebbinghaus, came up with the concept in the 19th century to describe the increasing rate at which we lose information once we don’t make the effort to retain it.

More recently, neuroscientists, Jaap Murre and Joeri Dros, were able to replicate Ebbinghaus findings, confirming that the steepest drop occurs within 24 hours of us reading or learning something new.

You may tell yourself you don’t have a good memory, therefore it’s hopeless. You’ll forget no matter what you do. However, remembering what you read goes beyond your memory.

There are core skills you need that will support, even augment your memory. The correct way to read is one. The ability to critically assess and understand what you read is another.

This book will teach you all of this and more. Here are some of the things you will learn:

Why reading books still matters in the digital age
The difference between passive and active readers. How to avoid being the first and become the second
How to become a master reader by leveling up with these four techniques
What matters more than memory and using it to remember more of what you read
Why one size does not fit all when reading different subjects and how to alter your approach
This one trick that helps you explain, not just remember what you’ve read
The surprising connection between your vocabulary and your understanding
How to ask a book questions
