“Never judge a book by its movie.” –J.W. Eagan
Synopsis
|Gitty Up| shouted the driver, as he encouraged the laboring horses to pull the ladened |prairie schooner| faster westward across the prairie. In the |prairie schooners| the people were excited and anxious to reach the vast prairie of Nebraska. They wanted to rush to the land, select their free land, and build their homes. Among the settlers on the Nebraska plains were the Author's parents. In this book the reader has a glimpse of their simple home, the care of the livestock on the farm, the planting and harvesting of the crops, the brutal weather, and the challenges of isolation. Every family depended on their horses for survival. Man power combined with horse power with determination resulted in permanent settlements. When tractors began to emerge for farming, then horses retired from field work. Whoa!
