Not really a book I would recommend to book clubs unless they are into American West history. But an excellent book nonetheless.

My book club enjoyed this book, probably more than I did. I did find the descriptions of what they did to survive in the wilderness interesting. I also appreciated the moral premises.

For some reason the Little House on the Prairie series wasn't part of the curriculum at my grade school so I am reading them now. They should be required reading for every child growing up in the USA.
