| WHERE EAGLES FLY FREE is based on the true story of Thomas Wright and his young wife Annie who are driven from their home in England to the shores of America. They arrive just as the country is pulling itself up out of the ashes of civil war and entering the greatest economic boom in American history. Thomas, a brilliant engineer and leader of men is thrown into Americaâ s rush west with the construction of the transcontinental railroad from New York to San Francisco that will help bind America together into the greatest country the world had ever known. We follow Tom and Annie chasing their American dream across the Atlantic, up rivers, over plains and mountains, through Indian uprisings, western disasters and their crucial involvement in the greatest technological feat of the nineteenth century, tying the frontiers of Americaâ s wild west to the gilded age of New York City. This is a masterfully told story of the great sweep of human desire for freedom, liberty and western expansion for land at a time when Abraham Lincoln described America as, â the last best hope on earth.â It is a fast-moving story of adventure, romance, greed, sacrifice, faith, family and the courage of these immigrants to push aside fear in a life and death confrontation with arguably the most despicable robber-baron of 19th century America. |
