At the post office today

...was a lovely invitation to the launch of Frontier Farewell: The 1870s and the End of the Old West by Garrett Wilson, a book I'll definitely buy. While the invitation I received is to the launch at the University of Regina on September 20, I had to link to the McNally Robinson event just because I could link to it. The publisher of the book is the Canadian Plains Research Center, a fine publisher. They have a lovely website, and the book has a very nice page in the online catalogue. Unfortunately, I can't find a way to link to it.

While I won't be able to make it to the launch, I do plan to be at the SWG 2007 Fall Conference and AGM. Looks like it will be a dandy. I'm thinking about contributing to the cross-genre display and to the display of members' work spaces. Mind you, we're renovating and my work space is a bit of a disaster right now. All the books from the former living room are currently piled on the floor behind me. I'm constantly tripping over them.
