Description
Prairie Bloomin' is a tender and touching diary that explores the life of Alma Swenson Runneberg as she grows up on her family's homesteaded farm in Kansas. Written between 1889 and 1900, this unique historical diary offers a fascinating glimpse into the past.
Author Linda K. Hubalek has woven together Swedish traditions with tidbits from Kansas history to create a rich tapestry of life in the Smoky Valley region during the late 19th century. This sequel to Butter in the Well provides a perspective on the experiences of Swedish-Americans and is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in historical diaries.
