More about the book

The story centers on John Ball, a young settler who, at 21, purchased 400 acres in 1800 along Grand Glaize Creek. Driven by the desire for independence, he moved with his family from Kentucky to Missouri, following in the footsteps of Daniel Boone. Ball's efforts in farming and livestock management, along with his later development of 17 city blocks on Manchester Road, laid the foundation for the town of Ballwin. The narrative draws on archival materials to explore his significant contributions to the area's growth and history.
