In 1858, at almost seventeen, a determined and fearless Gracie Tipton mounts her horse in Nashville, Tennessee and travels two thousand miles of the Butterfield Trail, an overland mail route to San Francisco.

Autorenporträt
For three-quarters of a century, Reba Rhyne's home has been in East Tennessee. During this time, she was married for 25 years, had a daughter, and established a business of her own. Writing began as a hobby, while she spent months on clients' locations as a consultant, developing prototypes for boat upholstery. Writing in the style reminiscent of Laura Ingalls Wilder and Janette Oke, Reba Rhyne, tells stories based on real history, much of it inspired by her own Tipton ancestors. Her books are Christian-oriented and suitable for teens and adults. Her first novel, Butterfield Station, was published earlier this year. For sixty-two years, she has been a Christ follower who believes her responsibility is to follow the Great Commission found in the Gospel of Matthew. Retired, she lives in the Great Smoky Mountain foothills.
