Notes

A family history centred on the author’s grandmother, Mamie Harris, tracing her life from her upbringing on the Iowa prairie through marriage and settlement in Nebraska and later near Wood Mountain, Saskatchewan, where she raised a large family during periods of drought and economic hardship. The narrative extends across several generations, beginning with Mamie’s forebear Magdalena Weaver, and continuing through Mamie’s descendants.

Drawing on interviews, family records, and surviving documents, Schultz reconstructs the domestic and working life of prairie women.
