Product Description
This eagerly awaited sequel to Dear Carrie, Letters from the Eastern Sierra 1878-1899 is Ms. Haun’s newest work of historical fiction set in the wild beauty of the Eastern Sierra. The saga of the Eastman and Perry families continues in a memoir written by Whitney Eastman in 1940 to reveal the long-hidden events occurring in her life between 1900 and 1908. Raised by doting parents and a loving community, Whitney marries and moves north to Bridgeport, expecting an equally happy life on a cattle ranch. But she soon discovers that the cloistered security of her childhood was poor preparation for dealing with a remote husband and secretive father-in-law, stunning revelations, devastating loss, and betrayals that challenge Whitney and those she loves in the Owens Valley as they weather the passing storms in their lives.
