Description

G.P. Schultz has polished Kansas city's past and placed it on his mantle like a treasured antique clock. Art Brisbane - Kanss City Star. A sincere, old fashioned, sentimental novel that flows as smoothly as the wide Missouri and could well make the charts. Isabel Merriam - Wednesday Magazine. Gully Town can be best described as heartwarming because the characters are such likable folk. Jerry Heaster - Kansas City Star.
With considerable insight and romance - G.P. Schultz has caught the flavor of a robust, thriving, conniving American city of the ninteenth century. Fred Slater - Saint Joseph New-Press Gazette. Jack and Kevin are two spunky Irish orphans just off the boat and determined to make their fortunes in America. They arrive in Kansas City when it is a rugged town built along mountainous gullies carved in the mud along the Missouri River - thus earning it the name "Gully Town." For Kevin, early Kansas City affords the opportunity to fulfill his ambitions to be a newspaper reporter and to pursue his avid interest in women - until the captivating Mary, herself an Irish immigrant, steals his heart. Jack settles into the business community and his life takes a completely different turn as he helps create the Boss System of politics that continues to dominate the city for half a century. Red is a young man who witnesses the horror of Quantrill's famous raid on Lawrence, Kansas, in the early days of the Civil War and later participates in the Battle of Westport. Red finds the woman of his dreams in the beautiful Melissa - only to lose her when she learns of his past and flees, taking with her the secret that could save Red from a life of crime. As the next generation comes of age in a more civilized Kansas City it faces its own challenges. Michael, a product of Gully Town's Little Italy, grows up in violence and becomes chief of the Kansas City underworld. Michael falls in love with the beautiful Beth, and must face the inevitability of his career in organized crime destroying the life they have built together.
