Pub Date: May 1st, 1957
Publisher: Univ. of Nebraska Press

Native Nebraskan sons celebrate the 15th anniversary of the founding of the Press in a collection of material emphasizing the richness of their home state. Willa Cather, Bess Streeter Aldrich, Gerald Johnson and many others chart the march of the frontier. One meets heroes and villains, buffalo hunters, desperadoes, cowboys, and senses the unbroken expanse of cattle range, wheat field and prairie. Cities, towns, wide open spaces and the people who settled and tamed them are brought together here.
