Full Circle continues the story of Thomas Chown’s first novel, Wolves at the Door, a story based on his ancestor’s pioneering across Kansas, New Mexico, and Colorado from 1864 to 1944. The story reflects the fictional Devon family's experiences from the Battle of Westport, Missouri, to their Ft. Scott, Kansas, homestead and the founding of Kiowa, Kansas. Their move west continues to the coal mines of Madrid, New Mexico, and to Walsenburg, Colorado. Their story offers a particular historical perspective of early Santa Fe, Madrid, and Las Vegas, New Mexico, all carefully researched by the author.
For reviews of Mr. Chown’s books, check out his website.
This event is free and open to the public.
