When Everett Proctor dies young in Depression-era Bear Lake, his widow Harriet is left to raise their sons on a dry farm at the edge of a harsh, beautiful valley. Rooted in the Mormon communities straddling the Utah-Idaho line, this novel follows a resilient family across generations—courtship and loss, faith and doubt, dry farming and debate, missions and academia. Douglas D. Alder weaves regional history, pioneer heritage, and the pull between hometown loyalty and a wider world into a warm, richly textured story.
- A sweeping Bear Lake family saga from the author's deep roots in the region
- Depression-era widow raises her sons on a risky new dry farm
- Rare fictional glimpse of J. Golden Kimball and the Paris Tabernacle
- An ancestor's polygamy-era prison diary discovered in the attic
Perfect for an adult LDS reader with roots in or affection for the Bear Lake/Cache Valley region who enjoys faith-centered, historically detailed family sagas.
