Alice Mendenhall George

Opis

The childhood memoir of Alice Mendenhall George may invoke in the reader reflections on their own childhood as she describes her ancestors, their move when she was an infant from Indiana to Le Sueur County, Minnesota, and reminisces about her childhood in the villages of Ottawa and Le Sueur, where her father became a partner in a family-owned sawmill. She recalls her chores, early experiences with Indians and describes the Dakota War of 1862. Her recollection of school during the 1860's, friends, insect plagues and more are relatable tales for all readers despite the technology of the day.
