An absorbing account of second-generation German immigrants who remained in rather than left Depression-era South Dakota despite bleak prospects for their late-nineteenth-century homesteadHomesteading and Moving On conveys one womans memory of how, in its modest, devoted way, her family surmounted obstacles and, over nine decades, flourished nationwide, bolstered by faith, love, and mutual respect. Helen Kurtenbach Furrs recollections of her rural prairie childhood and subsequent travels throughout America demonstrate how documenting well-lived lives creates linkage and tribute. She wants future family generations to know their heritage, and she hopes theyll recognize why understanding and appreciation are so important.
