The book is about a girl who leaves after I believe killing her abusive father by accident or self defense. And while the cops are looking for her she finds work at a stop along the railroad back in the 1800s. Its a restaurant where the girls live and work. They serve those who stop while riding the railroad. Its kind of a romance because in the end the girl marries. If anyone could help that would be great.
This is just important to me because my grandmother would read so many christian fiction books and would pass them down to me. Well when she passed away I was given all her books and in between my many moves they are lost to me. I am in search of them to renew the collection.
*Update* I have done more research and the book is about the Harvey House Girls. The main character leaves her abusive father who ends up dead and the law is looking for her. She escapes and begans working as a harvey house girl. |

I read the Wikipedia entry on Dragon and am hoping for a recommendation for a book that explains the mythology, physiology, history or origin of dragons around the world. I know of "Dragonology" but it's children's fiction. |
