Opening the Frontier - by Patrick Lindsay (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

A trail-blazing ride through America's West...

Spence

Clay Spencer had to become a man at a very young age. He worked in gold mines and the Comstock Lode silver mine in Nevada and made the cattle drive from Texas to Montana with Nelson Story. He also discovered his exceptional skill with a gun when put to the test.

By age thirty-seven, he had established a cattle ranch in Montana, where he planned to live out the rest of his days in peace. But a trip to Denver to buy cattle changes everything. Facing off with a real-life conman, Spence is about to learn that blood is thicker than water.

Klondike Gamble

Luke Spencer grew up the hard way. At thirty-four, he is a veteran of gold rush strikes and boomtowns from South Dakota to Colorado to New Mexico. While at his family ranch in Montana, he gets news of a possible gold strike in the Yukon.

Angie Parker is left alone on the family farm in Washington when her parents pass away. Like Luke, she dreams of something more and drifts west to Seattle, where she gets word of the new town in Alaska.

With the dream of possibilities too much to resist, Luke and Angie hear the siren call of the gold fields of the Klondike. But who will stand in their way?

This two-book bundle, including Spence and Klondike Gamble, tells the story of the true American family during the turbulent times of the American frontier.
