Description:
A clear & realistic picture of childhood experiences in the emerging West is painted in this book. The author explores the issue through letters, diaries, reminiscences, & oral interviews. The quality of children's lives in the settlement experience was crucially affected by their parents' economic condition & their attitude toward how much children should work & the amount of time they should be in school. The institution of compulsory school attendance removed children from continuous farm labor.
