His home has been destroyed, and his family is gone so he moves west to Fort Smith, Arkansas to begin his life anew.

About the Author

Barbara Phillips Stuart was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio. Her love of writing surfaced early in her life. While still in high school, she wrote a weekly column for a local newspaper. Later, her five children provided her with numerous opportunities for writing vignettes, which for six years were a weekly feature in the Douglas Dispatch in Douglas, Arizona.

After returning to the Cincinnati area in 1981, those stories were compiled into three volumes and were self-published. Currently, her grandchildren continually provide her with a new generation of stories.

Her personal interests include her grandchildren, bridge, oil painting, needlework, gardening, and world travel.
