Résumé
Introduction: The Cost of PermanenceThe spring of 1824 had culminated in a silent victory: the seeds were planted, the dugout was secured, and the squatters were gone. Big John and Beth Ann had survived the winter, not as refugees, but as settlers who had violently carved their claim out of the vast, unforgiving Kansas Territory. The fear that defined 1823-the slow, creeping grief and the threat of starvation-was replaced by a new, acute anxiety: the fear of losing what they had so brutally gained.
The Price of the Promise tracks the family through the summer and fall of 1824, where their small, green patch of tilled earth becomes a beacon for both opportunity and danger. The land itself demands vigilance against drought and pests, but the real threats now wear human faces. The tarnished silver pocket watch etched with E. P. is not merely a forgotten trinket; it is a promise of reckoning, a sign that John's shadowy Missouri past has caught up to his future.
Meanwhile, the arrival of the first permanent, legitimate settlers forces the family to confront a new reality: community building, trade, and the inevitable judgment of their infamous reputation. This book explores the intense struggle to protect a vulnerable harvest and a fragile peace. The promise of "never having to want again" is realized, but only at the highest cost: eternal vigilance, absolute dedication, and perhaps a final, bloody confrontation with the ghosts they had traveled a thousand miles to escape.
