COLUMBUS, Ohio, March 21, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Some legends begin with a simple desire for a better life; a family's survival can hinge on such intentions. Another enduring adventure from the heart and imagination of author Mary Katherine Arensberg is about to begin with the release of her third historical fiction novel Naomi of the Arizona Territory.
Naomi of the Arizona Territory follows the exploits of Naomi Hart, a courageous young mother who travels west into an unforgiving land in search of a new beginning for her husband and daughter. Homesteading on their isolated mountain is bittersweet -- wishes change, hopes fade and promises are broken, but changes are inevitable. As the years pass she learns that sometimes all you have is a belief in yourself, and memories are better than daydreams. The frontier is a harsh land; struggles are never-ending, but Naomi refuses to give up. Can a woman alone survive against such overwhelming obstacles? Read the book and find the answer.
