About Product:
I'll be beside you, Julian, Afton vowed silently. Your dream is mine. I shall work beside you to make it a reality.
The dream had started in London when Julian Gray forsook his future as heir to a prosperous mercantile business to follow his heart and throw· his lot with the Saints across the sea.
This place he was going to. This new city on the banks of a river. Could he make it his home? Could he love it the way he loved London?
Would his father ever forgive him for what he was doing? Julian refused to dwell on the thought.
A detour to New Orleans brought business success but claimed the life of his beautiful young wife.
In Nauvoo at last, alone with his tiny daughter, Julian becomes a positive force in building up "The City Beautiful." But true happiness eludes him till tragedy brings a shipboard acquaintance back into his life-the fiery, red-haired Afton.
Matured now through her sufferings, but enchanting as when a teenager, Afton brings life to the home and love again to Julian and his young daughter. Once again, he has a family to build for. But once again the dream is putto the test as he and Afton are forced from their home in freezing weather and face an uncertain future in the unknown West. Can the dream survive?
The reader joins Julian and Afton in an exciting period of Church history, brought to life through Susan McCloud's meticulous research.
