The true story of three brothers who traveled 900 miles from Ohio in 1871 to the desolate, barren prairie that was Cloud County, Kansas. In a few short years, their talents, hard work, and perseverance helped transform the land into a thriving agricultural community. Overcoming disasters and adversity, they became not only the most successful farmers in Cloud County, Kansas, but leaders in the community as well.
They and their children influenced nearly every facet of the county's society, including government, education, performing arts, business, professional sports and even auto racing. Their triumphs, tragedies, scandals and achievements are chronicled here.
Over 60 images and never-before published photos are included, as well as background material on the family line back to the early 16th century.
This is an amazing account of how one family quietly shaped their community into what it is today. Truly an American success story.
