In this poignant memoir, Leta Stetter Hollingworth reflects on her formative years growing up on the Nebraska frontier. She vividly recounts the joys and hardships of rural life in the late 19th century, from attending a one-room schoolhouse to plowing fields and tending cattle. But beyond these autobiographical details, Prairie Years also offers a window into a bygone era, revealing the daily realities of a community of pioneers striving to build a new life on the American prairie.
