The Story introduction
Set against the backdrop of the Canadian Pacific Railway's construction in the 1880s, the story chronicles the love and survival of Richard and Eleonora Dawson, told through their 24 letters to one another. Forced by financial hardship, Richard leaves their farm in Kingston, Ontario, to endure the brutal labor and dangers of the Canadian West, including a corrupt and negligent foreman.
Meanwhile, Eleonora must single-handedly fight a two-front war at home: fending off an aggressive neighbor trying to steal their land and battling the looming threat of a bank foreclosure. Their parallel struggles escalate until they reach a desperate climax, with Eleonora receiving her final foreclosure notice at the exact moment Richard uncovers his foreman's plot to use faulty materials on a critical bridge, endangering dozens of lives.
In a final act of courage driven by his love for his wife, Richard exposes the corruption, earning a substantial reward which he sends home just in time to save their farm. The story concludes with the completion of the railway and Richard’s triumphant journey home, culminating in a heartfelt reunion that affirms their love has not only survived the trial, but has been forged into something as strong and enduring as the railway itself.
