A vision of the Promised Land called them from Europe's shores...Peddlers and outcasts, they sought freedom under America's majestic, sweeping skies — and ecstasy in each other's arms. JARED: He dared to flee the Old World for Philadelphia, and to exchange a peddler's wagon for a Midas's fortune in the copper-laden mines of Colorado... MIRIAM: The loving, faithful wife. She could forgive Jared anything...but betrayal in another woman's arms... VASHTI: Jared's other woman. Passionate, proud, sensuous, she found a love beyond her wildest dreams and a fortune on the turbulently savage western frontier...
