Calling the Prairies Home

The prairies are considered by many a vast expanse that you just want to get through. Not us. We started travelling by motorhome in 1995 and REALLY enjoy the Canadian prairies (we're from NY). We've made friends with a farming couple from Manitoba - they've read the book and agree that it is a good reflection of prairie life. I found this book in 2000 and have loaned it to others and now want to get a second copy.
