Publisher's DescriptionBook 1 in the American West fiction series, The Wells Fargo Trail
In The Dreamgivers, Zac Cobb investigates a series of stagecoach robberies that he suspects have been engineered by the railroad, but finds himself an unwitting participant in the struggle for control of the opium trade. Jeff Bridger, the local sheriff, and Jenny Hays, a young woman who owns the town's restaurant, also become involved. Whoever has been supplying the railroad with Chinese workers and opium is more than willing to kill anyone who gets in the way. A desert ambush of a stagecoach that Zac had sworn to protect the young boy who is left without a father, the discovery of the opium connections, and the kidnapping of Jenny lead Zac and Sheriff Bridger on a desperate mission of rescue. But hired assassins and powerful underworld figures await them. Men and women readers who enjoy action while getting to know the characters will love this story. Author BioJames Walker graduated with a B.A. in Speech Education from the University of Washington. He later received an M.Div. from Talbot Theological Seminary.
In earlier years, he found interesting work at Knotts Berry Farm in California where he was employed as a stagecoach driver and shotgun guard while attending school. Then, Walker was off to join the U.S. Air Force where he became the youngest Drill Sergeant in the history of the Air Force. Walker also worked as an Air Force Survival Training Instructor, which gave him the opportunity to teach pilots the art of wilderness survival. He specialized in the area of prisoner-of-war survival with an emphasis on escape and evasion. To add to the diversity, Walker has served in several ministry capacities. He served as Senior Pastor of the Evangelical Free Church in Laguna Hills, California as well ministering with the Navigators in both their Collegiate and Community ministries for over 15 years. In addition, Walker worked as a creative and leadership consultant for companies such as Hewlett Packer and Wells Fargo Bank. Currently, Walker is a member of the Western Writers of America, a group of writers who write the fiction and history of the West for publication, television and screen. He is also a member of the Western Lawman and Outlaw Associationa group of national writers who specialize in history of the Old West.
