My Antonia by Willa Cather



This was a personal read for me, my father's family were also pioneers.  It's a classic and a must read to connect to our American history.  It is also a fine piece of literature.  We have come a long way from the time this book takes place.  A letter has so much more value then a text on the cell phone.  The again there were no phones back then or just starting to come to the big cities.  It's an agricultural story, it's a coming of age story, it's an immigrant's story and it's American's story.  The audio book also is good.  This book is like a fine dinner.  Enjoy.
