I try to write a review for all the books I like a lot, but I have never given a book as great a review as I will give this one. It was simply marvelous. It was beautifully written, made me smile and laugh out loud a number of times, and was the best description of pioneer life on the western plains that I have ever read. After reading it I have a new respect for those brave pioneers who settled our vast west and wastelands. The story was based on the notes and diaries of the author's family. It is a big book, but well worth the time it takes to read it and I would recommend it highly. You will have a greater appreciation for those brave women who helped settle our west.
