| Summary: | From the vantage of middle-age, Sara recalls with pride and humor her early years of growing up on a Wisconsin dairy farm with a twin sister in the 1940s and '50s. This is a personal portrayal of Scandinavian-American parents, siblings, family, and neighbors who painted the rural landscape of western Wisconsin in somber tones of duty and self-sacrifice, yet touched it with hope and grace. |
