Description - Long Road Turning by Irene Bennett Brown
Meg Brannon's wagon has just been hijacked by three bedraggled strangers on their way to Dodge City. On the run from an abu-sive husband. Meg agrees to share her wagon with Grandma Spicy, Lucy Ann and Laddie as they search for their uncle. When they arrive in Dodge City, they learn that the uncle has died, leav-ing only a small tract of land to Laddie. Meg trades for another parcel and they build themselves a home, soon to be joined by other women and children in need of a safe place. Harassed by a cattle rancher who wants her land, and in constant fear of the bounty hunter her husband has hired to find her, Meg struggles to maintain her farm. The group starts a road ranch for travelers and sets up a newspaper and post office. Through heartbreak and joy the homestead thrives, leaving Meg to realize that she must find a way to free herself from the past.
