Overview
Twin brothers, Jack and Joe Johnson, head west in a used Model T Ford to seek their fortunes in the sparsely-settled, but promising Panhandle of Texas. The time is 1921. The World War has been over for three years, women have won the right to vote, Prohibition is in full swing, and our two young men have just graduated from Texas A&M, where Jack studied agriculture, while his brother Joe majored in business. What the Johnson Brothers find in West Texas is bold enough to fill several volumes, but readers will be fascinated by the pluck and stamina it took to battle elements as daunting as the Dust Bowl, years of Drought, the Collapse of Wall Street, and the Great Depression, Come along and grow with them as these young people struggle heroically against nature's fury and the ever-present human failings of greed and selfishness.
