A degree of interest in pioneering the West of any locality in which one lives is enviable. As time passes, more interest is, therefore, attached to it. Hopefully, it will awaken old-timers, and those descended from Pioneer stock. Determination and untiring efforts put forth by Pilgrim Fathers who desired to find a better way of life. This book offers no fiction from a religious or scientific standpoint, nor in poise of a hero, or self praise. It is simple in style and diction.
The conclusion brings the closing incidents down to a recent date and finishes in brief the biography of Maurice Graves Emery. Memories and imagination are great contributors to personal values and consideration for humankind. This story is about a long life of more than eighty-six years.
