Book excerpt: The stories span the 1800s of the Old West, along with true life experiences of those times. This was a time where only the strong survived and the weak became victims to lawlessness and greed. The stories encompass the human factor of love and tragedy experienced in the personal strife and the influence of the Civil War. It was when families made heart-breaking decisions to go west to take up new lives and promises of a better future. The path along the ways was strewn with greatness and heartaches as well as strong commitments, knowing that anything is possible.
