Sierra Gold Fever is a gold rush story set in 1853. Jason is a miner in Grass Valley, California trying to make a strike so he can marry his fiancée wating for him back in Iowa. But a mining accident derails his plans and creates a two-fold crisis - physically and spiritually. Meanwhile, Elizabeth, his fiancée, tires of waiting, and along with her younger brother Bill they decide to join a wagon train heading for California. Jason's struggle with his crses in the gold field and Elizabeth and Bill's adventures and trials on their journey west make for an exciting saga of personal growth and western expansion.

Michael, I absolutely LOVED your gold rush book!
It could be accepted by a big publisher and, perhaps, used as school curriculum. The storyline is entrancing, the characters endearing, the historical figures seem to fit right into the plot. I can see readers of all ages so captivated by the story that they cannot put the book down.
