Rafael de Grenade is the author of Stilwater: Finding Wild Mercy in the Outback. She grew up in the foothills of the Santa Maria Mountains in northern Arizona and began working for the Cross U Ranch at age thirteen—riding, branding, showing horses, and gathering cows. Since then, she has traveled to many countries as a land steward and scientist, and her writing has been published widely in literary and scientific journals. She divides her time between the southwestern United States and Chile.

Inundated by monsoon floods in the winter, baked dry in the summer, and filled with the deadliest animals in the world, Australia’s Stilwater Station seems an unlikely home for a cattle operation. But over the course of one season, a ragged crew of ringers and stockmen use muscle and wit to bring the cattle in and win Stilwater Station back from the wild.
