Описание: Levinia Perry arrived in Mountain City, Colorado Territory, from Cornwall, England, on September 21, 1863. The day she stepped off the stagecoach, she married her sweetheart Hugh Champion, who had waited for her for two long years. This book, authored by her granddaughter Amy Hoskin Hill and adapted by the authors grandson, Dennis Mayfi eld, tells the true story of Levinias struggles in the mining town that became Central City, Colorado. Life was not easy for this couple. Four of their ten children had died by the time Hugh passed away at an early age. Two more had died by the time Levinia passed away. They endured cycles of births, deaths, floods, fires, feast and famine as the town grew with the discovery of gold and cycled back to poverty for Levinia and her family. Dennis Mayfield provides the Foreword, telling how it came about that this story is finally published 27 years after the death of the author. It includes a brief description of the difficult life of this pioneer family. He then follows his grandmothers Epilogue with an Afterword and Addendum. The Afterword includes the disposition of many of Levinias belongings, genealogy information and whether a prayer and promise made to her was fulfilled. The Addendum describes how Levinias family Bible was miraculously returned to him by a complete stranger and is now in a family home 30 miles from where the story began.
