During the Civil War, Brenton and Jordana Baldwin travel west to visit relatives and photograph land for eastern investors. The journey exposes them to distance, violence and the commercial appetite surrounding future railroad routes, while national division follows travellers far beyond the principal battlefields.
The opening Ribbons West novel questions whether images and investment reports can represent the human cost of expansion. Christian conviction and marriage are tested as the couple confronts danger and the temptation to treat western land and communities merely as opportunities for profit.
