To the Far Mountains

by Wayne D. Overholser

Overview

TO THE FAR MOUNTAINS

The mighty saga of the lusty, courageous men and women who conquered a new nation

Day by day, they pushed doggedly across the Great Plains, through a savage, hate-filled wilderness, a nightmare of Cheyenne, Sioux and Comanche. They were a lone wagon train of men and women, deter­mined to fight for their chance in the far mountains of Colorado--knowing too well that they might not live to get there.

A GREAT NOVEL THAT SURGES WITH ALL THE VIOLENCE AND PASSION THAT FORGED THE WEST
