Boyd Richards has traveled endless paths since the end of the Civil War. His former boss, Shanghai Pierce, sends him to the Kennedy ranch to assist in a cattle drive to Kansas on Chisholm's trail. In the days before leaving on the dusty journey, two very different women intrigue him. Lucy Kennedy, the daughter of his new boss, and Hallie Price, a soiled dove working in the town saloon. Lucy, a spunky reporter, introduces Boyd to the town with an article in the local newspaper. Bitter from losing his wife and son while away at war and preferring to avoid attention, Boyd is none too happy at Lucy's actions and is relieved to leave before he gets to know either woman. The cattle drive yields encounters with many new people and challenges. These events trigger unexpected changes for Hallie Price and Lucy Kennedy. But the journey takes Boyd further than he ever expected to go when he encounters James Hawkins, who opens his heart to the Scriptures and his eyes to the challenges of others. Healing the wounds of the past, Boyd strives to build a new life. What will happen as he travels Trails of Change? SECOND EDITION
