In 1856, Sam Newcome leaves his family farm in Ohio. Carrying generations of tradition with him, he heads to Wisconsin, determined to carve out a new homestead and a better future for his children.
But life on the frontier is not easy. A squatter challenges Sam's claim to the land, while harsh seasons and heartbreak threaten the resolve he's carried across hundreds of miles.
Through grit, vision, and a fierce devotion, Sam works to raise a thriving farm from the rugged soil. In time, will his perseverance give his children the same sense of purpose that once guided him?
Set against the beautiful, yet unforgiving Wisconsin frontier, TRAVERS BEND is a story of endurance and new beginnings.
