Synopsis Dream Wheels by : Richard Wagamese

A cowboy forced into early retirement bonds with a stubborn teenager in this novel from the award-winning author of Indian Horse and Medicine Walk. Canadian champion bull-rider Joe Willie Wolfchild is poised to win the most sought-after title in rodeo when a devastating accident at the National Finals leaves his body and ambitions in tatters. Unsure of what else to do, he retires to the panoramic family ranch, Wolfcreek, to mend. Claire Hartley and her fifteen-year-old son Aiden have nearly been torn apart by abusive boyfriends and an unjust world when a friend sends them to the Wolfchild ranch. Thrown together by terrible circumstance, it appears Aiden and Joe Willie have more in common than their childhoods would suggest. After a rocky start, they strike a deal: Aiden will help Joe Willie repair his ’34 Ford V8 pickup if the former champion teaches the city kid how to ride a bull. As Wagamese reveals their story, he rewrites the history of the North American cowboy. In taut, muscular prose, Wagamese explores how independence, self-determination, and a return to cultural tradition can heal body, mind, and community. “Richard Wagamese is a born storyteller, and Dream Wheels is his finest book yet. Cover to cover, a ripping read.”—Louise Erdrich, New York Times – bestselling author of The Night Watchman “A worthy testament to the healing power of family and tradition.”—Publishers Weekly “Ojibwa author Wagamese mixes cowboy lore and Native American mysticism in this affecting novel about the healing effects of family…. His soaring descriptions of the desert landscape, action-packed rodeo scenes, and reverence for hearth and home will strike a chord with readers.”—Booklist

Synopsis Dream Wheels by : Chris Rees

From the sensational Chevrolet Corvette to the stream-lined Toyota Celica, here is the ultimate history of classic cars manufactured since 1975, plus those dream and futuristic cars that were marvels of car design but never made it into production. This comprehensive visual reference shows every important marque from A-Z, highlighting some of the most significant and beautiful cars of the century. Detailed descriptions, history and technical information accompany every entry, making this the most authoritative and comprehensive guide to the contemporary classic car. This book also highlights the world's dream cars that were built as showcases but were never actually mass-produced. From major design houses such as Bertone and Ghia, these cars are at the very cutting edge of car design: futuristic models that were deemed too daring, too brash or too expensive to make commercial sense, but which pay tribute to the imagination and drive of car designers today. With over 800 stunning images, this title is the definitive gallery of classic and dream cars and the decisive reference book for every enthusiast and lover of the automobile.
