A Dream Fulfilled - Book One

By R. William Rogers

Life out on the windswept eastern Kansas plains in the 1850's was tenuous at best. Add to that, marauding bands of thieving Comanches, and a fella would start having notions of moving his clan the heck out of there.With the last of his cattle having been taken by the thieving redskins, Jacob Clarkson and his family load as much of whatever they can into a couple of wagons and set out on a journey in hopes of relocating their once prosperous cattle ranching endeavor to the high mountain grasslands of present day Colorado.The journey proves to be fraught with dangers, some of which are of the harsh weather and high water variety, while others are man made.The journey becomes even more difficult after the rescue of a young lady who had been taken captive by a trio of banditos. Their intent was to trade her to the Utes, who freely roamed the area, but first the Mexican outlaws will have to find and get her back.Through all of this, the Lord remains in charge and adds to the mixture, a helping of tender romance and true love between the rescued girl, Becky, and one of Jacob and Emily's twin sons, Seth.Not to be outdone by his brother, Sam manages a romance of his own after a mix-up in homestead filings helps to bring him and Liz together while their families remain steadfast in their struggle to gain a toehold in the savage land that is the previously unsettled grasslands of the South Park Basin of central Colorado.
