    About this audiobook

    After burying their parents, the three young Isom brothers faced starvation. Desperate and penniless, they set out in search of work. Their long, difficult journey forces them to discover themselves, and the harsh reality of life in the late 1800’s. With hard work, determination, and a dream, they emerge as one of the greatest success stories of the old west.

      Great story full of excitement. I did not like the way the ending left me hanging.
    • 5/5
