I found this book very interesting it takes place about the time my great grandfather and my grandfather followed the railroad (My great grandfather was a blacksmith.) and came through Wisconsin and then Minnesota and settled in Dakota Territory before South Dakota became a State. How different life was back then. My great grandparents had 11 children and to imagine how they traveled in those days is something. I have seen a number of wagons from those days. I don't know how they packed all those children in, much less, any furniture or clothing and food. Do you realize how far we have gone since then!
