The House on Harrigan’s Hill

This is a tale of the impoverished lives of five children, the alcoholism and infidelity of their father, and the sustaining commitment of their independent mother. Set in the Sierra Nevada railroad outpost of 1910 Truckee, California, this story follows the Edwards family and their struggle to survive in the harsh mountains during the turbulent early 20th century. Based on true events, the story captures the California woman's suffrage movement, Prohibition, and two World Wars.
