Unfortunately, families waiting for the trains weren’t always dreams come true—many times they were nightmares. William Walters was little more than a toddler when his sister deposited him and his brother on an Orphan Train heading to destinations unknown. Separated from his brother and handed over to a cruel New Mexico couple, William faced a terrible trial. Through his strength and resilience, however, his life became a remarkable adventure. Whether he was escaping his abusers, jumping freights as a preteen during the Great Depression, infiltrating Japanese-held islands as a teenage Marine during World War II, or courting the woman with whom he would finally build a loving home, William’s astonishing quest paralleled the tumult of the twentieth century—and personified the American Dream. | A Last Survivor of the Orphan Trains by Victoria Golden, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
