Auspicious Dreams
Amidst the backdrop of the great Western migration, Auspicious Dreams knits the lives of three spirited youths whose government promises a glorious future where contented settlers can select a quiet, cheerful spot for their abode and beneath perpetual sunny skies pass life happily away. The insatiable greed that left women, Native Americans, Blacks, Spaniards, and Mexicans scavenging for equality in a white male-dominated society threatens to rip their relationships apart. Roy Caldwell jeopardizes his dream for that happy life in a valiant effort to secure the dreams of the liberated love of his life, Sarah Margaret Lovelace; the Native American, Wahniki Wanshee Umatah, his childhood best friend and confidant; and even the wealthy Spanish Grandee, Emilio Santiago, their mentor and ally. Auspicious Dreams is filled with delightful, disturbing, and intimate stories of young love and strong passions that reveal both the delicate and sometimes disgraceful side of Frontier America.
