The nine essays presented by John R. Wunder collectively expose the
domestic and technological details of American pioneer life on the
High Plains. The essays, each written by a leading authority in the
field, examine such topics as early ranching and farming in the Rio
Grande Valley and the Staked Plains; the impact on Native American
and settler women of life on the agricultural frontier; the
response to perceived threats by agriculturalists after the Civil
War; and the agriculturalists' entry into the twentieth century via
their response to cultural change. The final chapter, a speech made
in 1890 by a Scottish traveller, contains a contemporary
observation of the real and mythical qualities of life on the
frontier.
