Rent The Land of Promise (A Place to Call Home)

Synopsis

Late Nineteenth Century Land Rush 1889. Cherokee Rose and police chief Britt Claiborne are forced onto reservations along with their descendants and the five 'civilized' tribes in the Oklahoma District. The U.S. government has told them that because of its rich, productive soil and sufficient water supply, the Oklahoma District is now white man's land of promise . With indescribable sadness and anger, the Indians look on as thousands of prospective settlers and their families enter the district and claim 160-acre sections of land in the Oklahoma land rush. This third book in the A Place to Call Home series masterfully includes the compelling stories of three white prospective-settler families introduced in Bright Are the Stars : Craig and Gloria Parker; widow Martha Ackerman with her parents and three children; and Lee and Kathy Belden with their two sons.
