Jed's Legacy

"Jed's Legacy," a sequel to "Into the Snow: The Testimony and Last Will of Jedediah P. Carpenter," is Book 2 in "The Jedediah Chronicles" series. Loretta and Sam Wilson are reeling from their seventeen-year-old son's enlistment in the army in the first months of the U.S. involvement in World War I. Partly to divert themselves from their worries about Davy, and partly out of concern for their friend's welfare, Lo' and Sam set out to find Jedediah P. Carpenter. Jed has not been seen since the autumn of 1916 -- the spring of 1917 is almost over and Jed has not emerged from his cabin in the ghost town of Buckskin Joe. A discovery in Jed's snow-bound cabin leads Lo' and Sam on a months-long adventure that takes them to some of Colorado's highest mountains, out onto the vast eastern plains of Colorado, and home again.
