Part-time Park City resident and author David Jacinto talks about his new book, "Where Eagles Fly Free," the second in his "Courageous" series.

Jacinto, a former civil engineer, transitioned to writing after his first book's success.

The new book, set in Park City, Coalville and Evanston, follows a UK coal miner who works on the Transcontinental Railroad. The story is based on his great-great grandparents, Thomas and Annie Wright, and includes historical events and fictional interpersonal relationships.
