Hard Back. Zustand: Near Fine. No Dust Jacket. First Edition. 55 Pages. Dark green tweed cloth with gold spine and cover lettering. No noted defects, Interior is flawless. The author was born in Syracuse, Kansas in 1887 of parents born to early settlers on the western plains, learned of the blessings, as well as of the trials an…d tribulations, of such pioneers, after the ranch owned by him and his wife was completely devastated by a prairie fire. The Bills, with small finances at hand, moved to the place, living in a cook-shack owned by a neighbor thresherman until the floor and walls of a two-room habitation had been erected, and then proceeded to rebuild all necessary buildings along with eight miles of fence, while Mr. Bill, not raised on a farm, learned the hard way the rudiments of rural life. At first he had difficulty unharnessing a two-horse team and could barely induce the most gentle cow to let him have about a quart of milk before his hands and wrists gave out. But, little by little, the place took on the aspects of intelligent care. Over six hundred acres of buffalo sod were turned and a commodious house of monolithic concrete was erected by the two; a dairy herd of fifty animals was built and ducklings and chicks by the hundreds poured from their four incubators. In time it became evident that if the most successful farmer in the neighborhood raised a crop, Mr. Bill had a good crop also. He was Secretary-Treasurer of the local Laundry for almost twenty-five years, and filled many lay offices in his church, while singing in the choir and participating in many cantatas and musical programs given in Western Kansas. He has published four books previously, largely of poetry and his work has appeared in many magazines in England, Canada and The States. Moreover - he has fallen in love with High-Plains land and living and he still holds title to quite a slice of it. Perhaps his writing shows evidence of this love. This book is dedicated to the memory of those American Heroes, largely unsung -- the men and women who produced the Bread-Basket of the World from a region once shown on maps as 'The Great American Desert'.
