Notes

A compact 37-page booklet recounting the transformation of Alberta’s native prairie into farmland during the settlement era. Tingley describes the monumental task of turning tough grasslands into arable soil and the vital role played by steam power in that process. To meet the demands of new settlers, entrepreneurs with massive steam traction engines and multi-furrow gang plows offered their services, revolutionizing land breaking across the province.
