Sierra Sunrise: A Mojave Adventure - Paperback

by Randall G. Doughty (Author)

The time is the early 1900s, and the place was deep in the Sierra Nevada mountains, where trails serve as roads, and the meek seldom dare to tread. Travelers seeking this environment often march to a different drummer than those of us who need a crowd to keep from feeling lost or alone. Somewhere along the way, these individuals have discovered the flaw in a society that rewards greed and bias and seeks to punish those who only hope to find a better path. This is the story of one such family seeking a more fulfilling existence by avoiding most things the rest of us think define civilization. Over a period of weeks, an innocent young boy is transformed by adventure and tragedy into a young man. A mother's faith is tested by God, and a family reaches into the past to heal it's wounds.
