A Novel

Beschreibung

It is the late 1800s and Brandon Percival is a handsome Bostonian who is already feeling old now that he has reached his thirties. Although he has recently suffered the heartbreak of a broken marriage, he does not lack for female companionship. He has three sisters who nag him, entertain him with the latest gossip, and fill him with good food. Brandon is especially fond of his invalid sister, Sarah. When his father announces they must take her to a drier climate to improve her declining health, Brandon agrees to leave his old life behind and head on the train with Sarah and another sister to the Idaho territory with his remaining family members trailing behind in a wagon train. When their stagecoach is robbed, Brandon and his sisters realize the Idaho territory is not without danger. But it is not until their journey ends in Boise that Brandon and the others discover their real adventure has just begun in a wild land they share with Indians. Keep on Singing shares the historical tale of one familys adventures in the untamed 1800s west as they begin a new life filled with hope, love, and with any luck, a miracle.

I am Barbara Haskett Jones Harman. I love God, my children, step children, writing and painting. I lived my childhood during the great depression that began after the crash of 1929. I met my husband, father of our children in 1942 we were at war. I had our first son in 1943, and then my husband was drafted into the army. I lived with my mother until the war was over. Ted came home in 1946 and we began adding to our family. My mother in law was from the hills of Kentucky. She told me many stories of incidents that had happen there. I felt a desire to put them in writing. however raising a family was a priority, everything was put on hold. my husband died in 1973. We had raised our children and they are living their own lives. Later I met my prince charming and married again. My husband discovered my box of unfinished manuscripts in my belongings. He began in insisting I complete them and would not give up on the idea. My prince died leaving me a widow again. By now, I have developed a deep love for the word in writing. I have published two books with AuthorHouse; Shadow of the Pines, a story of the Blue Ridge Mountains of Kentucky and Kimberly's Song back in Idaho. I fill my days with loving my many children, writing and adding a hobby, painting. The photograph was taken by my grandson, Jason Denver, Spokane WA
