Der junge Nepalese Siddharta, genannt Sid, muss miterleben, wie eine Steinlawine sein ganzes Heimatdorf vernichtet. Nur er und sein Bruder Bishal überleben die Katastrophe. Ohne ein Zuhause und ohne eine Familie beschließen sie, ihrem Bruder Arjun in den Wilden Westen zu folgen, der vor langer Zeit von der britischen Armee eingezogen worden war. Sie machen sich auf den weiten Weg nach Hongkong, überqueren den Ozean mit einem Schiff und sind schließlich gezwungen, beim großen transkontinentalen Eisenbahnbau mitzuarbeiten. Und die Arbeit ist die Hölle. Der Weg durch die Sierra Nevada erfordert viele Menschenopfer. Und nun beginnt die Wüste. Und ihr unbarmherziger Vorarbeiter Morgan kennt keine Gnade. Besonders auf die beiden Brüder hat er es abgesehen. Ein Arbeitsunfall bedeutet für Bishal das Ende. Er stirbt. Voller Verzweiflung beschließt Sid, die verhasste Eisenbahn zu verlassen. Er bestattet seinen Bruder und macht sich auf den Weg in den Wilden Westen, geradewegs in die Sierra Nevada. Mitten hinein in die Arme von fünf Banditen und einem Stamm Indianer, die alle nach seinem Leben trachten. Und noch ist Sid unbewaffnet. Ein Greenhorn im mörderischen Überlebenskampf. Aber er findet einen neuen Freund. Einen Comanchen. Eine wunderschöne Frau kommt ihm ebenfalls zu Hilfe. Doch reicht dies aus, um sein Leben zu retten? Wird aus dem Ende ein Neuanfang? [mehr]

John Muir (1838–1914) was a Scottish-born American naturalist, author, and early advocate of preservation of wilderness in the United States. John Muir was the first modern preservationist and founder of the Sierra Club. He helped save the Yosemite Valley and wilderness areas in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Muir wrote essays and books whose relevance makes them still popular. Muir felt that the livestock in the Yosemite area was destroying the land and helped petition congress to make the area a national park. In Muir's writings the reader glimpses the pristine beauty of the high country. In his later life, Muir devoted most of his time to the preservation of the Western forests. He petitioned the U.S. Congress for the National Park bill that was passed in 1890, establishing Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks. The spiritual quality and enthusiasm toward nature inspired readers, including presidents and congressmen, to take action to help preserve large nature areas. [mehr]
