About this listen
In 1880s Montana Territory, sixteen-year-old Thomas Grant dreams of studying geology at an eastern college, but his father William expects him to follow family tradition and take over their cattle ranch. When Thomas secretly applies for a scholarship to Dartmouth College, he sets in motion a conflict that challenges the foundations of his family.
Thomas finds an unexpected ally in Eleanor "Ellie" Montgomery, the scientifically-minded daughter of the new schoolteacher. Their shared passion for knowledge blossoms into romance, complicated by a bitter water rights dispute between their families. As a devastating drought threatens both ranches, Thomas must prove that his "book learning" has practical value.
At Dartmouth, Thomas excels while maintaining correspondence with Ellie at nearby Wellesley College. During summer breaks, he demonstrates how his scientific knowledge can benefit the ranch through innovative water management techniques. As the drought worsens, even his skeptical father begins to recognize the value of Thomas's education.
Through perseverance, Thomas eventually earns his father's respect while establishing a water resources institute that revolutionizes ranching practices throughout the territory. With Ellie by his side as both romantic partner and intellectual equal, Thomas creates a future that combines the best of both worlds—one that will be carried forward by their children, who inherit their passion for both science and the land.
"Thomas’s Rebellion" is a coming-of-age story about finding common ground between opposing views and creating a legacy that honors both tradition and progress.
Follow the story of young Thomas Grant as he pursues a path that will revolutionize the struggle of ranchers facing drought and other hardships.
