| Publisher Description: Moses Woods is a young man on a life changing journey in this coming of age novel set in the historical Wyoming Territory. In desperation, Moses is hurt while committing a crime. Near death, he finds himself being nursed back to health in the bosom of a homesteading family on the Wyoming countryside. Moses matures from an impetuous boy into an honorable prosperous man, as a similar transformation happens in the wild Wyoming Territory. Like Wyoming, Moses proves himself to be worthy, valuable, and resilient in this adventurous novel by D.D. Doughty. Wyoming Grass takes the reader on a journey into the past with vivid imagery and accurate historical detail. Wyoming Grass can also be used as a tool to teach history. Doughty uses this high action, fictional story as a backdrop to offer true to life glimpses into what daily life may have been like for the early Wyoming settlers. He tells a fictional story with excellent historical accuracy. In addition, Doughty includes appendices that offer further historical information as well as activities that may enhance the learning of U.S. History in the classroom. |
