I was fascinated by your character development, your accurate delving into 19th Century history, your efforts at portraying Native Americans and early Chinese emigrants as people rather than mere caricatures, your fast moving dialogue, and your surprise ending - which I did not see coming! I am happy to recommend this volume to any who desire a good - and wholesome - read, where the good guy actually is a good guy. I have ridden on horseback in the Tetons where the Sioux have ridden. I have camped where they have camped and I saw the mountains as they saw them, and I have become a part of that area. My history is accurate with names and places in San Francisco, and Yreka. I lived in Yreka for eight years. The names of miners, and miners claims and the history of Yreka are real. Please just sit back and read this exciting book. There are three more Volumes. I wanted to write a book that will uplift people. You will laugh and cry and when you finish you will feel good with a better outlook on people. There is goodness in all people. I was inspired to write this book, and it is for any age of people. Parents read this book to your children. Just sit back for a good read. I will have contests where you can win artifacts. I have a lot of Indian artifacts that I will be giving away. Let me know how you liked it. Doc doctmcooper.com
