| Publisher Description: The Oklahoma Land Rush gave every man the opportunity to stake his claim to a piece of the American Dream. Sooners and Boomers, winners and losers, the hearty and the hardscrabble, all raced westward in the hope of finding their own little piece of paradise. For mark and Junior, two young men who were just coming of age at the dawn of this new century, life presented them with a different set of circumstances. How can you decide when your friend needs your help, your family is counting on you, and your country may be going to war? And what are all of these historical figures doing in Enid, Oklahoma?Legend states that at the end of the rainbow there is a pot of gold. Most people say this isn't true, but then most people have never tried wishing on a rainbow. Hope and dreams are riches far more valuable than any mere pot of gold. And, you might not have to wish for it. Everything you ever wanted might have been right here all along. All you have to do is open your eyes.This story takes place over a hundred years ago. There are many things that were much different back then. However, there are also many things that haven't changed. Friends and family, love and loyalty, and even bias and prejudice remain to this day. Our ability to understand, adapt, live and learn from them will always be part of life. |
