Dangerous Ride Across Humboldt Flats - Adventures on the American Frontier, #3

Orphan Gabriel (Gabe) Young barely survives in the unforgiving West. He works for meals at mining camps and frontier towns. Then in 1860 he gets lost along the Humboldt River in northern Nevada Territory. He meets a girl who takes him to her parents at a Pony Express station. With them Gabe finds a whole lot more than shelter and a meal. He discovers a father's provision, a mother's love, and a young girl's interest.
But most of all, he discovers God's grace. When Gabe gets a chance to help this family, he rides several legs of the dangerous Pony Express trail with news of Abraham Lincoln's election and the impending Civil War. The second installment of the Adventures on the American Frontier series.
