Three characters, from St. Louis, Chicago, and Scotland, are controlled by what the fates dictate. The time is set in the late 1800s, but it could just as easily be today.

Thomas Meeker, born in poverty and cared for by loving souls, confronts despair and moves on, ever westward to a destiny which challenges his strength as well as his soul.

Frederick Wagner is born into a life of mean and hate. He is nurtured in a world without a conscience, where rewards are earned through deception, pain and cruelty.

Seamus McGregor’s world begins on the fringes of Scottish aristocracy and slides ever-perceptively to the realities of life. Given to do the right thing, his life ends tragically, alone and without merit. A Tale of Three Journeys looks into the souls of each character and places you in their shoes. Any one of the Three Journeys could have been your journey.

The Tale culminates in Dawson City in the Yukon, where the three characters come together for one brief, fatal encounter. The Tale asks the question: Which of these three, completing their pilgrimage, is the strong, the brave, the sane?

A Tale of Three Journeys is available in softcover at Amazon.com. The Tale is 199 pages of action.

Review Comments

Fantastic Book! Well written and easy to read. The characters are well-developed and the plot flows nicely though the whole book! You can actually "feel" the experiences of each character. Highly recommended to all readers. You won't want to put it down!!

The author has a unique gift in character development and his description brings them to life. The narration places the reader in the middle of each journey — each in their time and place. It is as if the author lived through that time and place himself. It is difficult to close the book and return to reality.
