Reap the South Wind

Lucy Walsh's heart remains with the struggling town of Paragon Springs, but she feels beholden to her husband, Admire, to make the Run to the Cherokee Strip for new land. When Admire is killed for his strip claim, Lucy, grieving, leases the land to his cowboy friends and returns to Paragon Springs and gets by on her small farm. In 1910, an eccentric new neighbor begins building a new fangled "aeroplane" in his barn. Lucy, convinced that he is onto something that could help her town, is determined to build an aeroplane plant with the oil money she has come into from her Oklahoma land. Together, they face ridicule from friends and family.
