by Hamlin Garland<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Description:  An engaging and exciting account of life in the Iowa countryside shortly after the end of the Civil War.

But life is also filled with joys, such as trips to the county fair and Fourth of July celebrations. Drawn from Garland’s own life experiences, this book is the perfect guide to anyone wondering what life on the prairie was like when it was first settled.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
