A Danish couple with two children face harsh conditions on their 19th Century Nebraska prairie farm. Will they survive blizzards, tornados, plagues of insects, arduous hauls for water, and long journeys to town for farm and household supplies? Peter is stubborn and contrary. Ellen Marie is sweet, congenial, and patient. Neighbors, craftsmen, and pastor reach out to help the struggling family. But Peter persists in his self-reliance. Will Peter ever bring water indoors to supply their home? Can anyone, anything, alter his course? Will he seize upon an opportunity provided by the challenges he faces? This short, allegorical novel is amply illustrated with color photos of prairie wildflowers, prairie restoration efforts in Missouri, the author, the original 1953 Danish edition, and the author's handwritten manuscript. Sales proceeds will help support prairie preservation and restoration efforts of the Missouri Prairie Foundation.
