Ash Fork

More about the book

Set in the historic community of Ash Fork, established in 1882 as a vital rail junction, the narrative explores its rise and decline due to changing transportation routes. The introduction of Route 66 and U.S. Highway 89 initially boosted its significance, but the opening of Interstate 40 shifted traffic away, leading to a population decline. Despite these challenges, the remaining residents display resilience and a renewed community spirit, striving for a hopeful future as they adapt to the evolving landscape of their town.
