Goodreads asked Stephen Darley:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Stephen Darley Miles Goodyear was raised in North Haven, Connecticut, and then went west to found the City ifOgden, Utah. I was born and raised in northern Utah and have lived in North Haven, Connecticut for the past 33 years. We were opposites in terms of where we grew up and where we settled. I found that circumstance too hard to resist. Miles Goodyear is unknown in Connecticut and revered in Ogden, Utah. I wanted to get his full story to both places and also to where he died in California.
