Event Details

Stretching from Texas north to the Dakotas, the vast Great Plains region has generated its share of myths and stereotypes, from the hardy pioneer farmer and the vanishing American Indian to the Dust Bowl refugee. It has also produced some of our best American writers and inspired a rich and varied literary tradition.

Proud, independent Dakota wheat farmer George Armstrong Custer and his hardworking wife Rachel must battle both the land and their landlord during the depression years of 1933–34.

This book is available as an ebook on hoopla and Libby.
