Summary "Desert Dust" by Edwin L. Sabin is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a young man traveling West in search of health and adventure, particularly as he makes his way to the burgeoning town of Benton in Wyoming Territory during the 1860s. The narrative highlights themes of exploration and the contrasting lifestyles of the East and West, as well as the encounters that shape the protagonist’s journey, including a striking chance meeting with a captivating woman. At the start of the novel, the protagonist is on a train journey across the expansive plains of the West, reflecting on his decision to leave his life behind in search of a cure for his ailment. He is intrigued by a mysterious blonde woman—referred to as "My Lady of the Blue Eyes"—who is also traveling to Benton. Their interactions set a romantic tone and hint at the adventures that lie ahead. As they travel, the protagonist learns about the rugged nature of Western life, dealing with various characters, including train personnel and other travelers, who offer him insights into the wild and uncontrolled environment of the frontier. The opening chapters effectively establish the setting, tone, and characters, drawing readers into the adventure that awaits in Benton. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
