Summary:
In an unusual blend of fiction and nonfiction, A Pioneer Sampler
chronicles one year in the lives of the imaginary Robinson family.
The stories illuminate not only pioneer farm life, but
situations-dealing with the school bully, competition between
siblings-that occur in any era. Illustrated historical notes enlarge
on the social history and describe activities related to the stories,
from operating a grist mill and arranging a country store to spinning
wool and making butter. Barbara Greenwood and Heather Collins cover
an enormous range of subjects, for a complete and involving look at a
historical period and a way of life.
