- MAP TITLES: the grids shown on our website serve both the civilian & the military 1:50, 000 topographic series. Although the areas covered by maps in both series are identical (apart from some border or coastal sheets), occasionally map titles differ – only one title is shown on the grid, usually the military one. In Galicia, the Basque country & in the Catalan speaking areas the tendency now is to use local place names rather than the often better known Castilian ones. Where possible, both versions are included in our titles. Map titles listed on our website are based on information received by us at the time of publication, but sometimes maps arrive showing a completely different title! As long as the map number is as ordered, the correct map has been supplied.

It is a tale of murder, love & money, as people struggle to carve out a life in the wilderness while battling ever-duplicitous human nature. Alexandra Bergson`s father, John, is dying. He entrusts his farmstead on a desolate stretch of plain to her rather than to her brothers. Faced with the rigours of frontier living, droughts & penury, Alexandra only becomes more determined to carry on her father`s legacy & battles through remortgaging the farm & adopting new techniques. Fast forward sixteen years, her hard work has paid off, her brothers Lou & Oscar have both created prosperous farms & under Alexandra`s management the original farm has thrived. When childhood friend Carl Linstrum returns from travelling though it appears that romance is on the cards & Lou & Oscar drive him out of town, fearing that their sister`s marriage would disinherit their own children.
