They Came for Opportunity

Autor Ellen McIntosh Proctor Editat de Joan Mamanakis
en Limba Engleză Paperback
Like many others who came to the west, pioneers of this area had capital which often did not consist of money - they came with empty pockets - but had a good supply of something more useful, namely, intelligence and determination. Some were determined to get out of the ordinary rut of their lives and make a new way for themselves. Others came west to leave the scars of the Civil War behind. They came for free land and a fresh start. They came to this new country, leaving behind the old rules and the old restrictions of ancestral lands. They Came for Opportunity tells the stories of these pioneers of the Cheney, Washington area. There are common themes in these 63 stories about men and women working hard to make a better life for themselves and their families. Yet each one offers a unique peek back into our history and into their lives. These are the stories of people whose capital investment paid off. They made a success of their business ventures, contributed to the development and prosperity of our region, and enriched our community through their activities and friendship.
