Publisher's Synopsis

The Franklin family began its odyssey in Northern California in the early 40's. After being married in Southern California they moved north and built a log cabin in Northern California. Within a year of their marriage, the family had a little boy, Johnny. A couple years later twins, Donald and Denny, were born. This is when Johnny started having his "dream."

The book tells stories of Johnny and his brothers as they grow up. Later the eldest son (Johnny) gets married and he and his in-laws, Jack and Mary Jones, decide to move to Alaska and homestead there.

A little while after the Jones and Johnny arrived in Alaska, the rest of the Franklin family decided to come north as well. Within a year the Jones and Franklins had built two cabins and Becka, Johnny's wife had a little baby, little Johnny.

The families struggle through rough winters, wet springs and illnesses. Injuries occurred and Johnny kept dreaming the same dream.

Later in the title came the deadly hunt, the house fire and the miracle. This book is the first in a series called 'The Franklin Family Odyssey.'
