Description
During their marriage, they raise five independent children, including the head-strong Berta. Through country schooling, corn husking bees, and learning how to live on the prairie, the Gehring children rely on each other like the branches of a lone cottonwood tree. However, they too are tested by the stock market crash, the Dust Bowl, the Depression, an outbreak of Spanish Flu, the prejudices of war, and personal tragedies, becoming strong Americans who strive to make a difference in their world.
