Into the West: The Orphan Train
Part One of Book One in The Territories Saga Serials

Margret MacBride loves her children more than life itself, but as a young widow she can't support her and her children on a maid's salary. After losing their home they struggle for years to survive living on the streets of New York City. Distraught, Margret turns to the church for guidance. Sister Mary Agnus convinces Margret her children will be better off if she turns them over to the Catholic Foundling Aid Society under the care of their aid worker, Mrs. Kelly, for placement in a new home.

Taken from the only home they have ever known, Elizabeth and Conner MacBride are frightened and homesick. When Elizabeth finds herself in trouble after a run-in with the foundling home's director, Sister Mary Clare, and bullied by one of the other children, Mrs. Kelly has to put her job on the line to get Elizabeth and her brother on the Orphan Train and find them a new home in the wild western territories.

Stephen Burckhardt was born in and raised in and around Wichita, KS. As a child, Stephen lived for a while on a ranch near Benton, KS. This is where Stephen developed a deep love for all things western. Being a proud member of the Cherokee nation only deepened his interest in history, animals, and native traditions.

After earning a degree in journalism from Wichita State University, Stephen spent years writing for various publications and eventually worked as a ghostwriter. One of his early assignments was writing a western for Luis Antwoord titled, Western: In the Company of Thieves. It was after this project, Stephen developed an insatiable desire to continue writing westerns under his own name.

To reach a wider market, Stephen decided to write his books as serial novellas instead of full novels. Each saga is divided into 5-6 novellas. When the saga is complete, all novellas will be released in a single volume collection with bonus material. The prices for the collection volumes will vary depending on the number of novellas included.

Stephen also holds a degree in forensic criminology and has studied business at Wichita State University. He was working on a third degree in nutrition when his life took a turn he never saw coming.

In 2013, Stephen met and married the love of his life, P.R. Burckhardt, whom he truly considers to be his "better half." The couple was married at The Old Cowtown Museum in Wichita, KS. They currently live with their rescue dog, Shaggy.
