Description

In pioneer times, early death was much more common than it is today. For women it usually involved multiple childbirths and a life of extreme hardship. For men it was often associated with the dangers of work at the outer edges of civilization. Then, there were the many afflictions that could take a child's life at a very tender age. Ken Reyher examines this sensitive subject offering an alternate glimpse of pioneer life.
