Oklahoma Pride — Dana Fuller Ross

Young and old hitched their wagons to the dream of free land when the United States announced that Oklahoma's Indian Territory would be opened for settlement. "Sooners" rushed in, boomtowns went up overnight, and on the wide prairie hopes blossomed into fortunes or died with the crack of gunfire. And here one special family would now begin its fight to forge this lawless, rugged frontier into greatness: THE HOLTS.

1889. Horses champ at the bit, buckboards creak as they roll into position, and all along Oklahoma's border 50,000 men and women wait to begin the biggest land grab in history. Among them are courageous young newspaper editor Tim Holt and his fifteen-year-old cousin Peter Blake. Together they will race to stake their claim in a brawling boomtown where men break every law to acquire easy money and power...and where, before the ink is dry on Tim's first edition, a dangerous enemy vows to see him dead. At the same time, Senator Toby Holt, son of the legendary wagonmaster Whip Holt, finds his life and honor put to the test by a beautiful ex-mistress and a madman bent on vengeance...as the Holt family sweeps us into unforgettable days of destiny and excitement in Oklahoma Pride, Volume Two of THE HOLTS: An American Dynasty.
