Pearl S. Buck The Townsman Pocket Books Paperback A story of our country's growth, of the people who made it and of a strong man, his woman and his town. Jonathan Goodliffe came to frontier Kansas when it was a raw new land, a land of restless people, a stopping point for those who were pursuing the American dream ever westward. But Jonathan dreamed a different dream. To him the raw frontier was more than a place to rest before pushing on. For him it was a challenge and an opportunity. And so he stayed, even when his family moved on - stayed to build a town, to teach, to love one woman, to marry another, to rear his children, to help build out of the primitive frontier the land America has become.
