FROM CELIA HAYES:  To Truckee’s Trail.

#CommissionEarned

The greatest adventure never told … until now! In the year of 1844, a
party of fifty men, women and children set out for California from
Council Bluffs, Iowa. The men and women of this party are looking for
different things by undertaking this long journey: Dr. John Townsend
looks to find a place where his invalid wife Elizabeth may recover her
health. Isabella Patterson with her six children is hoping to be
reunited with her husband, gone ahead to establish a new home for them
all in California. The devoutly Catholic and Irish patriarch Martin
Murphy, Sr. is seeking a degree of religious freedom for his extended
family. Just-married gunsmith Allen Montgomery is looking for adventure.
And no one knows what the taciturn blacksmith Elisha Stephens is
looking for, all along the California-Oregon emigrant trail – but they
elect him as their leader and trust him with their lives.
