Book 2: The Owen Family Saga.Young cavalryman Carl Owen returns from the Civil War to find the family farm destroyed, his favorite brother dead, food scarce, and his father determined to leave the Shenandoah Valley to build a cattle empire in Colorado Territory. Crossing the continent, Carl falls in love with his brother's fiancée while set to wed another girl, but he might lose everything if the murderous thug Berto Acosta has his way. Carl battles a band of outlaws, a prairie fire, blizzards, a trackless waterless desert, and his own brother-all for the hand of feisty Ellen Bates."I finished The Man from Shenandoah at half-past midnight because I couldn't put it down." - Utah Reader"This is a book to prize, and not only for its gritty realism, exciting action, and compelling characters.

Heartily recommended!" - Western Writer's NewsletterThe best reading order for The Owen Family Saga is: That Tender Light (Origin Story Novella), Gone for a Soldier, The Man from Shenandoah, Spinster's Folly, Ride to Raton, and Trail of Storms.
