Description
"A western story set in a small town in Nebraska on 'the rim of the prairie.' The characters include a tantalizing heroine made more attractive by a hint of mystery, a steadfast hero, and two delightful pioneers."-Cleveland Open Shelf "Very well written. Mrs. Aldrich realizes real, living figures."-Literary Review "Exciting and realistic. A wholesome story without being sentimental or cloying."-Boston Transcript "An understanding presentation of small town life with a pioneer background. Good for any library."-Wilson Library Journal

I do believe this is my favorite Bess Streeter Aldrich book. I have read A Lantern In Her Hand and White Bird Flying. This one kept me coming back for more. She writes so beautifully of the Nebraskan prairie and develops characters wonderfully. This is a real treat for any reader.
