Howard Chase, Red Hill, Kansas is a novel written by Charles M. Sheldon. The book tells the story of Howard Chase, a young man who moves to the small town of Red Hill, Kansas, in search of a new life. Howard is a hardworking and ambitious person, who is determined to make a success of himself in his new surroundings.As Howard settles into life in Red Hill, he discovers that the town is not as idyllic as it first appears. He encounters a variety of characters, including a corrupt local politician, a group of violent criminals, and a love interest in the form of a beautiful young woman.Despite the challenges he faces, Howard remains determined to succeed. He works hard to build a business, and he becomes involved in the community, helping to fight against the corruption and crime that threatens the town.Throughout the book, Sheldon explores themes of ambition, perseverance, and the importance of community. The story is set against the backdrop of rural America in the early 20th century, and the author's vivid descriptions of the town and its inhabitants bring the story to life.Overall, Howard Chase, Red Hill, Kansas is a compelling and engaging novel that will appeal to readers who enjoy stories of small-town life, personal growth, and overcoming adversity.She recalled, sitting there on the High School steps, just how she touched every other tie as she ran, and the life-time of horror she felt in the one second when she slipped and fell within ten feet of the other end of the bridge and said to herself, It is all over. And the next second she was on her feet again, feeling the hot breath of the monster as it came charging into the opening, and she was outside, half way down the bank up to her ankles in the sand and cinders sobbing hysterically and yet with a curious feeling of pride over her escape and a half formed promise to try it again, such as one feels, they say, who has charged up a hill in battle and escaped unhurt among the bullets that have killed half the regiment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
