Description
Lack of water meant that the poor homesteaders north of Arizona's Emerald Canyon went bust while the established farms in the south remained green and profitable. John McCollum's determination to move water into the drought-stricken land brought him up against powerful people in a town with a long history of selling the same foreclosed farms to newcomers.
