The news is welcomed by most - but not all. Some see the small Texas town as a threat, others want to dominate the prosperous community. Often, it's difficult to discern friend from foe, and miscommunication can be deadly. The legendary range wars of the early American West were brutal, bloody affairs. Water was often an excuse for the skirmishes, but rarely was it the true root of conflict. Political competition, an unquenchable thirst for power, and poor communications were the real catalysts for these violent struggles. In the post-apocalyptic world of Bishop and Terri, circumstances are ripe for history to repeat. Electricity replaces water as the point of contention, the new world on the brink of falling into violent chaos, just like in the past. The issues run in tandem, human nature apparently unchanged in 200 years. Join the citizens of post-collapse West Texas as they struggle to rebuild and improve their lives. It's a journey filled with the joy of success and fraught with the peril of defeat." -- page [4] of cover. 650 0 $a Survival $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Electricity $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Political science $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Electricity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00906253 650 7 $a Political science. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069781 650 7 $a Survival. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01761768 655 7 $a Dystopias. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Science fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 800 1 $a Nobody, Joe. $t Holding their own ; $v bk. 5. 941 $a 1 952 $l RMPB397 $d 20151009010737.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3D75908E578111E5B40523C9DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b LGZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
