Synopsis
In 1852, a fourteen-year-old orphan and her elderly guardian, accompanied by a tough drover and his crew, take several thousand sheep from Iowa to California, returning by ship through the Panama Canal, to raise money to save the girl's home from a villainous debt collector.

When her parents die, 14-year-old Susan Carlisle inherits not only their sheep farm in Iowa, but also their enormous debt. This debt puts Susan at the mercy of a scoundrel who plans to take all that Susan owns away from her. Rather than fall victim to this man, Susan--accompanied by her elderly guardian, Mrs. Myrtle Dessery--sets forth for California determined to sell the sheep and pay her debt.

Publisher's Note
Not quite 14 when her parents die, Susan Carlisle discovers she has inherited 2,000 sheep and a huge debt. In the 1800's, Susan's hometown in Iowa is a hub for the westward movement. Feisty and intelligent, she tricks a drover and his scruffy crew into helping her drive her sheep to California, where they will sell for a large profit--if they survive the trail.
