| Sumario: | Are we responsible for, and to, those forces that have formed us - our families, friends, and communities? Where do we leave off and others begin? In this book, the author looks for answers in the history of her family. Poring over letters, artifacts, and documents that span more than a century, she discovers a tribe of hardscrabble Midwest farmers, hunters, trappers, and laborers struggling to hold tight to the ties that bind them, through poverty, war, political upheavals, illness and accident, filicide and suicide, economic depressions, personal crises, and global disasters. |
