The punctuation is much improved.  But Ken doesn't proof his work and leaves unwanted words because he's changed his mind about the continuation of the sentence.  I've found this habit among those authors who don't have someone proof their work.This book continues the story of the two teenagers now heading for the gold fields of California.  There are a few folks that want to tag along to California, and Josh becomes the leader/decision maker of this little group.Josh and his wife do a great deal of growing up.  It's interesting how the author has made Josh's wife the strong one of the couple and tries to teach him not to question himself all the time.The way this book came to an end will give Mr. Consaul the opportunity to write a third book about these two kids.
