Synopsis
The inhabitants of Daybreak, a quiet 19th-century utopian community, are courted by a powerful lumber and mining trust and must search their souls as the lure of sudden wealth tests ideals that to some now seem antique. And the courtship isn't just financial. Love, lust, deception, ambition, violence, repentance, and reconciliation abound as the citizens of Daybreak try to live out oft-scorned values in a world that is changing around them with terrifying speed. Winner of the Walter Williams Major Work Award from the Missouri Writers Guild.

Review
"a wonderful look at human greed and love, nature and progress, idealism and realities." - Historical Novels Review
"Ostensibly about the challenges and temptations encountered by citizens of a nineteenth century utopian community in the face of a changing world, this book tells that story in the context of the equally absorbing saga of the deforestation of the eastern Missouri Ozarks. . . . author Steve Wiegenstein has captured a sense of the area, its history, and its people. Recommended." - OzarksWatch magazine.
"A beautiful Ozark tale full of unlikely romance, an experiment in communal living, conflict between a lumber company and those idealistic settlers, a murder trial, and a flood caused by a dam break that changes everything for everyone. . . You need not to have read the previous books to enjoy this story, but you will be inspired to seek them out for more of his lovely language." - Danita Allen Wood, Missouri Life.
