We’re beyond excited to welcome Montana’s own (and our dear friend) Russell Rowland to Isle of Books on Friday, March 28th at 6:30 PM!
Russell will be sharing stories from his newest book BE A MAN: Raised in the Shadow of Cowboys – a heartfelt memoir about growing up in the West and navigating what masculinity means when you’re surrounded by men of few words.
You might already know Russell as the talented author behind eight books, including the beloved Fifty-Six Counties and the critically-acclaimed Arbuckle trilogy. He’s been capturing Montana’s spirit and stories for years, and we’re thrilled to have him stop by for this special evening.
The details:
- When: Friday, March 28th, 2025, 6:30 PM
- Where: Isle of Books, 511 W. Mendenhall, Bozeman
- What else: Snacks and refreshments (because books and snacks go together perfectly!)
This is sure to be a beautiful and interesting night of stories, conversation, and community. Russell’s down-to-earth approach and honest storytelling always make for memorable events, and we can’t wait to share this evening with you all.
Bring your friends, bring your questions, and lets explore unspoken codes of western masculinity together.

Meet the Editors of Anaconda's Melting Pot Cookbook!
Isle of Books Butte43 East Broadway, Butte MT 59701Join us on Small Business Saturday, November 25, from 11am-1pm to meet some of the editors of Anaconda’s Melting Pot Cookbook!Take a bite out of Anaconda, Montana’s historyImmigrants flocked to Anaconda for work when Marcus Daly built the smelter in the late nineteenth century and settled together in neighborhoods where they retained their language, customs, celebrations and cuisine. Anaconda’s Melting Pot Cookbook was created to honor and preserve that rich culinary heritage. These recipes evoke vivid memories of aromas drifting out of the kitchen and the people who prepared the dishes, and this book pays tribute to Anaconda’s melting pot of cultures.“Recipes evoke vivid memories of aromas drifting out of the kitchen, the people who prepared the dish and specific family gatherings. They remind us of our home, our parents and grandparents and the caring and love that went into the preparation of our favorite foods.”
