So much research went into writing this book! One tiny historical detail that made it into the story was the completion of the Trans Continental railroad in 1869 it changed travel across country significantly, so maybe not so tiny! Every writer needs a little company while working… even if he has four paws and absolutely no respect for deadlines. 😂 Life was hard in 19th century America. But if you didn't know what you were missing, you made the best of what you had. The poor suffered the most because they could see what they were missing. The rich had all the new inventions of that very industrious era. Look back in history and you'll see how easy we have it today in comparison. It's been an interesting and eye-opening experience to write about a time which is really not that long ago.
