About this ebook

A girl travelling west alone to her married sister is carried through danger on the plains by a stranger, and the man who saves her life turns out to be Jasper Holt — whom her brother-in-law calls a coward and treats as an enemy.

Fifty-seven plates of nineteenth-century landscape painting, among them works by Winslow Homer and Albert Bierstadt, give the novel's plains and mountains a visual counterpart in the American scenery of 1842 to 1894.
