They journeyed from opposite ends of the globe into America's
heartland. Displaced by heart-wrenching circumstances and orphaned
at age five, "Hiram" finds his way from devastated Georgia and its
Civil War aftermath to an early Kansas frontier. Martha, the
youngest daughter of Volga-German immigrants, struggles with a
settler's existence on an arid, primitive, high plateau of the
"Great American Desert." From their austere and troubled
beginnings, both earnestly strive with courage and purpose to do
that is right during their passage through life. They meet early in
the century, and together they raise a family in the midst of a
world at war. Their environment transforms from an established
industrial society and begins steadily evolving into the age of
technology. The story of their chaotic beginnings and continuing
life challenges paints a poignant picture of life in the early
1900s society during this most "Fortunate Passage."
