Story
In 1844, two years before the Donner Party, the Stevens-Murphy company left Missouri to be the first wagons into California through the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Mostly Irish Catholics, the party sought religious freedom and education in the mission-dominated land and enjoyed a safe journey - until October, when a heavy snowstorm forced difficult decisions. The first of many for young Mary Sullivan, newlywed Sarah Montgomery, the widow Ellen Murphy, and her pregnant sister-in-law Maolisa.

After 25 years of traveling and shaping the American West with her husband, Robert Strahorn, a railroad promoter, investor, and writer, Carrie Strahorn decides to write down what was really on her mind during those adventurous nomadic years. Certain that her husband will not read it, and in fact that it will only be found after her death, Carrie is finally willing to explore the lessons she learned along the way, including the danger a woman faces of losing herself within a relationship with a strong-willed man and the courage it takes to accept her own God-given worth apart from him.

Second in Series, Story of Emma Wagnor Giesy
The life of Emma and Christian Giesy in Willapa Bay, Washington (after their trek westward from Missouri) is the second in the series. The story is both beautiful and heartbreakingly sad. The life that Emma and Christian made together after the rest of the colony moved on to Aurora, Oregon, was the happiest and most productive of their lives. Although he had initially been afraid of the water, Christian and his friends entered into the oyster business and provided a living for themselves and their families. Christian’s parents also remained in Washington, although they were never supportive of Emma. The tragedy that befell Christian and what happened to Emma and the children afterward nearly broke me. But this is a true story. And if it didn’t break Emma (and it ALMOST did) who lived to an old age, I surely wasn’t going to be a weakling just listening to it. I know one thing for certain, it was her CHILDREN that kept her from throwing in the towel and quitting. For I, too, am a mama. Clear down to my toes. Mistakes and all, Emma was a fighter. I wish that the third in the series was still available on Audible. But for some reason, it isn’t. So I will be forced to get it in print. Amazing story of a real-life woman of substance.

definitely not a disappointing story
after finishing the first book I immediately dove into the second one. while I'm a little disappointed that it is now ended I was captivated through the entire story from start to finish! and while the story itself was more than enough to keep me interested the narrator seemed absolutely a perfect choice for this particular storyline.
