Book details
Overview
This book is about three of the survivors from the Hammon flood that occurred on April 3rd and 4th in 1934. A father and his two sons, one a teenager and the other a small infant less than three years old, who became the foundation of future generations. The story told in this book is partially fiction but is largely based on true real-life accounts and historical facts. How these three managed to survive the terror from that dreadful night and the devasting after effects are miraculous to say the least. They not only had to overcome the flood and the death of a wife and mother, six daughters and sisters, but also the Great Depression, The Dust Bowl era, and eventually World War Two to survive.

This book is dedicated to three survivors of the Hammon flood of April 3rd and 4th, 1934 — a father and his two young sons, one on the edge of manhood and the other still a small child not yet three. From the devastation of that night, these three became the foundation of their family today.
Though the story told here blends fiction with fact, its heart is drawn from real memories, real histories, and the lived experiences of those who came before us. How these three managed to endure the terror of that night — and the long, painful aftermath — is nothing short of miraculous.
They survived not only the flood and the loss of a wife and mother, six daughters and sisters, but also the grinding years that followed: the Great Depression, the Dust Bowl, and eventually World War II. Their courage carried them through each trial, and their resilience shaped the generations that followed.
