It begins in 1876 with our male protagonist fighting the demons of his war years with the Union Army. Today, we would call it post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). His position in the Union Army was sharpshooter. There were many, many killings. The haunts visit Roy at least once a month. We meet our female protagonist early in the story. Abigail and Roy begin their relationship early on as a working partnership. The story continues through four generations. The clan reaches twenty-four ages infant to Roy's late sixties. The last part of the story is about Sammy and his work-shooting photos and writing script for an Eastern magazine. His assignments are the National Parks and National Monuments of the West. Pretty much ends with Sammy and his wife, Deloris, and son, Roy Jr. returning to the ranch. Completing another circle is this continuing story of Be without End. It is fall of 1929, and stock market crash hits the USA. But our clan is self-sufficient and weathers the lean years without much of a ripple in their lifestyle; providing their own produce from the huge garden, beef and pork from their own herd, eggs, cream and cheese, and honey from the hives. A testament to extended family and sustainability; hard work and a creed handed down by Abigail and Roy. A legacy to sustain.
