Synopsis
An adventure filled with ingenuity and perserverance begins when 16-year-old Tom Wade leaves England, orphaned and facing a questionable future, in search of his Uncle Harry in America. The story follows Tom as he travels West to find his uncle with a band of comrades in Colorado's Rocky Mountain wilderness questing a gold mine. They are all pursued across the Bad Lands by Indians, overcome by a snowstorm in the mountains, and run down the unexplored Colorado River through the Grand Canyon. Tom proves his courage, builds lasting friendships, and realizes his goal of returning home to offer his sisters a life they never imagined. Please Note: This book has been reformatted to be easy to read in true text, not scanned images that can sometimes be difficult to decipher. The Microsoft eBook has a contents page linked to the chapter headings for easy navigation. The Adobe eBook has bookmarks at chapter headings and is printable up to two full copies per year.
