Broken Dreams

A Tale of How the Wild West turned a Frontier Doctor's Dreams to Ashes. Follow his adventures as he joined the Mormon Caravan as they searched for "The Promise Land" and, later, his escape from their grasp only to be confronted with the reality, and aftermath, of the Mountain Meadows Massacre in Southern Utah of 1857.

The Author......... Everett Wood personifies the cliche': "Play the hand that's dealt you." He believes as one ages, an exciting life can be had if one engages completely in the realities of that life and relishes those declining years with action. His writing experiences began at age 75 and provided an opening to a whole new world of historical research and adventure. This coupled with his rich family heritage has produced two novels so far with hopes for more. A fourth-generation Coloradan, he lives in Fort Collins, Colorado.
