New Choteau Chamber of Commerce member and the Choteau Acantha Publishing’s longtime reporter Nancy Thornton, recently published (under her assumed business name of Canal Heritage Enterprises) the third book in her “Tales” series, “Tales from Choteau Montana.” The subtitle of the series reads, “The remarkable people, weather, crimes and events that made the local weekly news.” Her earlier books include “Tales from Montana’s Rocky Mountain Front” and “Tales from Montana’s Teton County.”

The softbound books are collections of original short stories created from writings dating back to the 1880s in old newspapers including the Choteau Acantha. Over-the-counter sales at $15 per book, cash or check only, are available at the Acantha office, 216 First Ave. N.W., Choteau. The book is sold as a print-on-demand publication from lulu.com and will be available in the future at retail bookstores.
