From the Publisher:
Another land rush: The Chaffee Family built a canal to the desert wasteland of the Imperial Valley, close to the Mexican border. This opened vast acreage for young farmers who were anxous to get ahead. The Phelans moved there to farm. When the family returned to the San Gabriel Valley, they traveled along El Camino Real, the King's highway, the most important highway of all.
From the Author:
History in story form can be enjoyable as well as informative. The great historian Bernard De Voto said the Westward Movement was all about ordinary people doing extraordinary things. I think he was right. They were ordinary people and I am proud to say, they were part of this great scene.
