Journey of Hope

This book is the story of a boy who left North Carolina in search of a new life and became a man in the Northern California gold fields. To survive, he had to learn how to differentiate between those who were his friends and those who were his enemies. Quick to act when danger threatened, kind to those who were less fortunate, and a friend to those who would be his friend, he developed leadership skills that served him well as he grew in stature as a man. There is intrigue and adventure aplenty to pique the reader's interest, and yet the integrity of the man is never compromised as he shares his wealth and power with his friends and those less fortunate. So, dear readers, walk with me through the pages of "Prospector's Rainbow," and enjoy a fascinating and refreshing tale of the California Gold Rush. Read more
