Click here to read an excerpt from the book. This is the gripping story of Jackson and Martha McClure struggling to survive on a Texas Panhandle farm during the Dust Bowl days of the 1930s. They work beyond normal man ́s endurance to hang onto their land, but their hardships pale when they are faced with new, unforeseen burdens. A destitute stranger leaves his six motherless children, one an infant, with the McClures while he seeks work wherever he can find it. The McClures, including their own two young sons, now have ten mouths to feed, three times a day, seven days a week, for how long they did not know, in a time when farms have turned into clouds of dust. The McClures and their neighbors strive to conquer Mother Nature, and work toward creating a better tomorrow for themselves and those who come after them. They are rewarded by indelible marks they leave across the land - a land that men once thought of as worthless and inhospitable. They prove to be a very special breed - independent, courageous, self-reliant, individualistic, visionary, and resourceful.
