A young man, not yet sixteen, crosses the Mississippi in 1873 without fear. This book tells a magical story with wit and grit of unraveled characters and amazing experiences in a land bigger and more beautiful than any dream. 

With empty pockets, a spark for life, and a wild sense of freedom, he tells his story in a cowboys' soup of words, following his heart while searching for adventure and fortune in a new world.


Disillusioned by the harsh realities of the Great Plains, WB's roam takes a dramatic twist when he meets the love of his life. As they fall in love, fate strikes, and they are separated. Crisscrossing the Far West in search of each other, they struggle to stay alive. Overcoming the perils of a wild frontier and a western theater of unraveled characters, they discover a land bigger and more beautiful than any dream....
