Annotation | Adventures and pitfalls overflow in this collection of tales based on true events in rural Nevada. The voices are those of children and young adults as storytellers recalling their early lives. The theme of each story varies according to the adventures and difficulties each character faces, such as: the Spanish Flu, freezing weather, hunger, a flood, or early aviation with an unlit landing strip. In addition, these stories show the effects of national and even world events on people living in an isolated area. |
