Review # 1 was written on 2015-01-13 00:00:00 Luis Fuentes This was not a book that I would've read under normal circumstances. The cover was cold and uninviting and the story was not one of typical interest. A few months after my mother passed away this book was found among her possessions and I learned that it had been my grandfather's favorite book, so much so that he had named his daughter, my mother, after Barbara. Once I knew this I was compelled to read it because it was a part of my heritage. So the story itself was actually quite intriguing after the first chapter or two. I am amazed when I stumble upon such in-depth writing and imagination in books of this time period, the authors long dead. Written in 1911, it's a very strong read for its time as we learn of the reclamation of the desert, financiers, big- business minds, the savvy and the conniving. The plot twist at the end I was not expecting but tied everything together from the beginning. I was also surprised to learn that it was made into a silent film in 1926; Gary Cooper having a lead role and character actor Charles Lane as Jefferson Worth. Oh, the history of such things that we do not know.
