Uncle Jack's Creek

A young soldier marches into Camp Chelan from Fort Walla Walla in 1879, impressed with the pristine beauty of Lake Chelan and the friendly Indians living along its eastern shore. His adventures in North Central Wahington span the days of territory and statehood, and lead Dean Kerry time and again to Uncle Jack's Creek and the home of his friends En-so-wha-kum and his great-granddaughter Annie. His enchantment with this new frontier area draws him back to the lake when he is discharged from the Army in Spokane. Prospecting the Stehekin River is a challenge for Dean and his friends, but the opportunity for a partnership with Uncle Jack and his developing orchard dominate his future plans. Hard work and determination are complemented by friendly relationships with both old and new citizens of the country to ensure his success as a Chelanite. --- from book's back cover
