About this ebook

1869--widowed with six children to raise--Cornish carpenter Henry Wright emigrates with his family to the new world. Through Vermont, Mississippi and Texas some family members move on to experience revolution and banditry while building railroads in Mexico. Others tackle the greatest project of the early twentieth century--the building of the canal in Panama.
