Later in life his health began to noticeably decline, and he desperately wanted to use what strength he had left to compile his memories with the treasure chest of journals and diaries that he and his mother had kept. Read about a lifetime of detailed stories that offer historic and personal insight into the Great Depression years based on his true story. This book takes you through the hard times Ben and his mother endured after his father died in 1928. The country was sinking into its worst depression in history. Their ventures took them across the country and back, then into Canada where he would meet and marry a young girl from Winnipeg, Manitoba. Now in his early 30s, strong and ambitious, he was anxious to begin his new life. Then life changed dramatically.

Book Synopsis Dreams of El Dorado by : H. W. Brands
Download or read book Dreams of El Dorado written by H. W. Brands and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2019-10-22 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Epic in its scale, fearless in its scope" (Hampton Sides), this masterfully told account of the American West from a two-time Pulitzer Prize finalist sets a new standard as it sweeps from the California Gold Rush and beyond. In Dreams of El Dorado, H. W. Brands tells the thrilling, panoramic story of the settling of the American West. He takes us from John Jacob Astor's fur trading outpost in Oregon to the Texas Revolution, from the California gold rush to the Oklahoma land rush. He shows how the migrants' dreams drove them to feats of courage and perseverance that put their stay-at-home cousins to shame-and how those same dreams also drove them to outrageous acts of violence against indigenous peoples and one another. The West was where riches would reward the miner's persistence, the cattleman's courage, the railroad man's enterprise; but El Dorado was at least as elusive in the West as it ever was in the East. Balanced, authoritative, and masterfully told, Dreams of El Dorado sets a new standard for histories of the American West.

Amy thinks Cade extorted a steep fee from the group to include them in his wagon train. Despite a strong physical attraction between them, Cade and Amy leave Missouri bound for Oregon with no respect for each other. As they travel west in covered wagons and deal with daily hardships and challenges, their true personalities emerge. It's a long trip by covered wagon from Missouri to Oregon, but is it long enough for Amy and Cade to realize they've misjudged one another and change their cynical views on love and marriage?
