While shelves are filled with accounts of industry titans, politicians, and exalted military leaders, this is a tale of an estranged young man making his way in a hard, cold, and often cruel world. Escaping a dull future with little meaning, he follows the example of his childhood hero and goes west into the Kansas Territory to seek his fortune. He first joins a freighting company down the Santa Fe Trail and then returns to the turbulent “Bleeding Kansas”.

In Gone to Kansas, 1855, young Hiram Lockwood left a broken family and St. Louis to seek his fortunes on the frontier in Kansas Territory and on the Santa Fe Trail. In Kansas 1856, Hiram is shedding his greenhorn ways and gaining experience as a muleskinner and stage driver. Soon he finds himself in the midst of the turbulent times of "Bleeding Kansas," where a man could be shot for not being "on the right side of the goose." Surrounded by rogues, miscreants, and border trash, Hiram must rely on himself and a few friends to thread his way.
