Pioneer Families of the Midwest
This important, albeit scarce, three-volume collection of family histories pertaining to persons who migrated to the Midwest during the last quarter of the eighteenth or first quarter of the nineteenth century is now available in a consolidated edition. Mrs. Walden, who privately published these genealogies between 1939 and 1941, has here bridged the earliest known records pertaining to each family so that future researchers might be able to trace their lines with less difficulty. Although the Clearfield edition lacks an index to the work as a whole, a complete name index to Volumes 1 and 2 can be found at the end of the second volume.

Meeting the Train
When W. E. Utterback began compiling the history of Hagerman, New Mexico in 1968, he asked Mrs. B. W. Curry to help. The two of them were doing fine, but soon discovered that Hagerman had more history than they had bargained for. It had become such a tremendous undertaking the others in the community offered to aid the struggling historians--and the Hagerman History Book Club was born. From the efforts of the Club has come this book. It is a unique achievement. No professional writers set about to search library stacks or interview "old times." No professional writers, in fact, even saw the manuscript until it was finished. The Hagerman pioneers and their descendents have written their own stories, weaving them into a colorful history. Each has become an author in his or her own way. So this is the story of Hagerman as it was with a new foreword by Katherine Kitch Hagerman. It is history remembered by those who lived it.
Elusive Dreams
John Freeman manages a successful hardware store to support his family, but he dreams of doing something more with his life, something important. He hopes to buy the store someday, but will that be enough? John's wife Hannah dreams only of raising a family of decent, well-behaved children, but demons from her past haunt her, and her family crumbles. John and Hannah's son Aaron hopes for a pro basketball career. When he wins a basketball scholarship to a top tier school, he is on his way, but he faces long odds: Is he good enough for the pros? Aaron's sister Sally hopes one day to become a pediatrician, but Hannah, the one person who should provide her primary support, thwarts her dream and drives her from home into an uncertain future. The fractured family turns outward for support, finding it in unexpected places when fate intervenes. Dreams are elusive, and they sometimes die, but others often arise to take their place. In the end, all it takes is a little love from those closest to you.
