The Color of Rain

A Kansas Courtship in Letters

Beschreibung

Separated by a great distance in the 1890s, can a widower and a schoolteacher overcome the obstacles that stand in the way of their love and commitment? John Feist unfolds a true-love story, old-fashioned letter style, in his historical romance novel, The Color of Rain. Handsome, well-respected local banker, now eligible bachelor, Frank Wilson is nothing less than a hot-ticket item with "the path to [his] home? a pilgrimage for unmarried women bearing casseroles." He's not interested in remarriage right away-except for Irene, a schoolteacher living two train connections away. A long-distance courtship commences. The lovers keep to weekly letter-writing since they barely have the chance to see each other, especially when trials and tribulations convolute their individual lives.

John W.

John is a semiretired corporate lawyer living in Falls Church, Virginia. He grew up as an only child in Horton and Lawrence, Kansas and studied philosophy for his AB at the University ofKansas and earned his JD at Stanford Law School. Since 1994 he has been general counsel to a consortium of electric and gas utilities in the US and Canada which sponsor energy efficiency projects in residential, commercial and industrial sectors.

From those experiences, and his few years as a lobbyist in Washington on behalf of Western steelmakers, John drew ideas and impressions for his suspense fiction.
