Following a Dream Across Texas

Ridge Rivers grew up on a small, hardscrabble farm in Northeast Texas and the Panhandle. His lifelong dream was to be a cowboy and own a ranch. Barely finished with school, he and a friend left with two horses and a mule packed with essentials for a month-long, five-hundred-mile journey to the Texas Panhandle to follow his dream. On a ranch near the Canadian River, Ridge became a capable and trusted ranch hand. The owners even took him to their local church and allowed him to court their daughter. When Ridge was saved in that church, he felt his dreams coming true. But then... "Nothing captures the spirit, the trials, tribulations, and triumphs of small-town Texas like Jim Ainsworth's writing does."
