Set against the backdrop of the First World War and the Great Depression, this is the dramatic story of one woman's struggle to forge a new life in the American West. The novel chronicles a largely unknown part of the Jewish immigrant experience as seen by a pioneering family settled in Arizona. Gloria Goldreich lived for several years in Jerusalem while doing graduate work at the Hebrew University. Her previous novels include "Leah's Country", "Leah's Children", "This Promised Land" and "This Burning Harvest".
