Whitewater Crossing

Readers of Roy Bush's Whitewater Crossing will identify with the hero, Casey Jones, as he continues his journey from New York City to confident young ranch hand for his uncle in the 1920's. His adventures and perils keep the reader eagerly turning pages. The book has a well-woven, fast moving plot, with enough history included to educate without the reader even knowing it's happening. A plus for locals is the Inland Empire background and its ranching lifestyle of the time . . . viewed from the heart by the author. I heartily recommend this exciting book for young readers . . . or even those not so young! Donna Scofield Freelance author and columnist for the Yakima Herald-Republic newspaper.
