Giants in the Earth: A Saga of the Prairie
by O. E. Rolvaag
If your ancestors knew what a "soddy" was, or traveled by ox drawn wagon across the prairie, you MUST read this book.
Absolutely, you MUST!!!
My great grandmother drove an ox drawn wagon from Red Wing MN to Sheldon ND with a child beside her - just as the main character of this book! This book is personal to me!
