Growing Up on the High Plains of Kansas: Through a Child's Eyes

Bag om Growing Up on the High Plains of Kansas: Through a Child's Eyes

My life began in a time in Kansas when horses were vital for plowing and reaping, hauling wheat to market, for riding horseback, pulling buggies, surreys and wagons for business and pleasure. It was a time, too, when motor vehicles were just beginning to make their appearance in our more isolated part of the country. Although a story of olden times, this is not a pioneer story as such. Any age has its measure of romance and thrilling progress, but this erawas the beginning of a swift rate of progress the like of which had never been seen. Having observed this continuing acceleration, it is almost as if someone had pushed a fast-forward button.Growing Up on the High Plains of Kansas: Through a Child's Eyes is the story of our dear Mother, Leila "Tiny" Bosler McDougal, who passed away June 6, 2016, at age 107.
