The Children's Blizzard by Melanie Benjamin

4.0

Entertaining story of the families that were encouraged to go west to find a better living. The brutality of the winters that they faced and there life homesteading. It was a honest account of what our winters and summers can be. It's also a good account of why people stay where they call home. At times I was distressed as I wanted a better life for the Olsen girls.
