Praise for Reliance, Illinois"Reliance, Illinois has it all&mdash;mystery, politics, war; love,  death, and art. In finely wrought sentences, Volmer's novel follows  such a lively cast of characters, first and foremost her marvelous  protagonist Madelyn. Every page is a pleasure."&mdash;Karen Joy Fowler, author of We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves"Female protagonists in author Mary Volmer's historical fiction novels are resilient, educated, street smart, intrepid. [Reliance, Illinois] harbors unexpected twists." &mdash;San Jose Mercury News "Volmer's unforgettable protagonist lives through social evolution, the fight for women's rights and personal strife, yet she perseveres, and&#160;Reliance, Illinois, with its universal themes and evocative period detail, is uplifting." &mdash;Shelf Awareness "Complete with love, war, death and mystery, the story&rsquo;s characters weave their way through social evolution, gossip, crime, women&rsquo;s rights movements and their own personal struggles." &mdash;The Telegraph "Volmer&rsquo;s&#160;second novel paints a compelling portrait of a small Midwestern town and its residents during a period of great change."&mdash;Library Journal&#160;"[Reliance, Illinois] has smart touches of humor and is well grounded in its place and time. This novel will appeal to readers curious about the lives of women in the post-Civil War Midwest."&#160; &mdash;Publishers Weekly "Volmer&rsquo;s second novel will appeal to readers for its rich cast of characters and well-evoked setting." &mdash;Booklist "A genuine pleasure. Reliance, Illinois is lively, witty, and evocative, with characters who pop off the page and a protagonist you'll never forget."&mdash;Lou Berney, author of&#160;The Long and Far Away Gone"Mary Volmer&rsquo;s&#160;Reliance, Illinois grabbed me from the first page. Staggeringly beautiful prose, a poignant story, the whip smart heroine Maddy who I rooted for all the way. Volmer brings a universal theme of the reliance&mdash;all of us who search for it&mdash;to be found in ourselves. Do yourself a favor, clear your schedule and drink in Volmer&rsquo;s radiant Reliance, Illinois."&mdash;Cara Black,&#160;New York Times&#160;bestselling author of&#160;Murder on the Quai"Mary Volmer&rsquo;s lush prose draws the reader into an intricately detailed world."&#160;&mdash;Lois Leveen, author of&#160;Juliet&rsquo;s Nurse&#160;and&#160;The Secrets of Mary Bowser"In Reliance, Illinois, Mary Volmer creates a world at once old and new. She evokes an entire time and place through the perfect application of richly enlivening historical detail.&#160;In her depiction of the varied and often risky recourses her characters adopt in order to live well or with dignity&mdash;or at all, Volmer&#160;tells a compelling, timeless story about exigency and survival, especially for women.&#160;A deftly written page-turner that addresses universal questions with open-heartedness and verve, Reliance, Illinois offers a captivating read about an important juncture in American history."&mdash;Naomi J. Williams, author of Landfalls&ldquo;A lovely and moving novel&mdash;it is about language and writing, but more profoundly it is about creation: art, friendship, birth itself. Beautiful.&rdquo;&mdash;Max Byrd, author of The Paris Deadline Praise for&#160;Crown of Dust"There are subliminal echoes of L. Frank Baum in Volmer's mythmaking . . . But Volmer keeps whimsy in check with a terse present-tense voice that invests her pioneers piquant inner lives and a poker-faced lyricism."&mdash;The New York Times Book Review"Any illusions about the glamour of digging for gold are totally  shattered by Mary Volmer's Crown of Dust, a grim and carefully  researched book about the California gold rush . . . Volmer, in her  remarkable first novel, has recreated the reality of an era that few can  even visualize now."&mdash;The Washington Times"Volmer's distinctive, beautifully written debut is set in the California gold rush country in the mid-19th century . . . [Her] prose is taut and restrained, moving the story along at a healthy clip as her hardscrabble characters rumble and stumble through their dusty domain. Volmer's found a fat vein of gold in some heavily mined territory."&mdash;Publishers Weekly, Starred Review"Volmer paints a moving portrait of outcasts and nonconformists who build their own community . . . Evocative historical background and thoughtful social observation make this a promising debut."&mdash;Kirkus Reviews
