In his fourth book, Rufus, Rufus Franklin Stephenson looks back on the people and places that shaped his life. Surviving an impoverished childhood in Mississippi, by the grace of God, Rufus makes a life for himself as a railroader. In a career spanning more than four decades, his life on the railroad takes him and his family across the country, from the unforgiving climate of the Mojave Desert to the majestic mountains of Colorado. Plying his many talents, Rufus works hard to provide a good life for his ever-growing family and to give them the peace and happiness they so deserve.
