Описание книги

This tale of two sisters courageously homesteading on the prairie in 1907 provides a lively portrait of frontier life.<br /><br />&quot;Interesting in its spirit and atmosphere, and it is told simply and well. . . This is an unusual record, well worth reading.&quot;&mdash;New York Times Book Review<br /><br />&quot;Mrs. Kohl has told this story of South Dakota with a simplicity, a directness, and an understanding of its quietly heroic element which make her book an appealing as well as a significant contribution to the latter-day history of the pioneers.&quot;-Saturday Review
