Van de uitgever
On March 23, 1889, President Benjamin Harrison signed a proclamation opening two million acres of Oklahoma land to settlement. A month later, with a teeming crush of pioneers, the Oklahoma Land Rush was on.
Based on the struggle and sacrifice of those first settlers, STOP THE TRAIN! brilliantly captures the magnificent ambition and raw courage that helped settle the American Plain. Through the eyes of young Cissy Sissney, we experience the settlers' battles with brutal weather, crippling self-doubt, and the crushing efforts of the Red Rock Railroad to bring their dreams crashing down around them.
Even more, we experience the birth of a community, as an unforgettable group of aggravating, endearing, cussed-stubborn individuals bond together to build a home in the wilderness, in a tale seasoned with surprise, tragedy, some pulse-pounding suspense, and an astonishing amount of outrageous humor.
