"My Homesteader's Heritage is the story of two families who immigrated from England and Poland to face the challenges of homesteading in Canada. Despite their vastly differing backgrounds and cultures, the two families were joined together when Leonard Croswell married Ella Stebner in 1943, at Newbrook, Alberta. The Croswell family began their journey in 1842 sailing from Liverpool, England for thirteen weeks across the perilous Atlantic Ocean and stalling amid the threatening icebergs of the Labrador Current. An outbreak of cholera marred their courageous journey with death and sorrow. Yet through a twist of serendipitous fate, two grieving Croswell / French families on board were joined together to bravely face the frontiers of British North America. The Croswell diaspora eventually led to homesteading in Saskatchewan and Alberta. Ed and Helen Stebner, were married in 1922 at Tarnufka, Poland. After facing the dangers of World War One, their German community began to feel increasingly alienated and marginalized politically and was denied many rights. Hearing of the glowing opportunities and safety in Canada, the Stebners immigrated, first Ed in 1927, and a year later Helen and her two preschool children, to Leduc and eventually their homestead in Newbrook, Alberta. My Homesteader's Heritage is an account of the bravery and perseverance of two homesteading families who overcame the difficulties and hardships of a frontier land to pass on a legacy of faith, determination, hard work, and success for their children to endorse and emulate"--

“Susan has placed the history of knitting within the context of American history, so we can clearly see how knitting is intertwined with such subjects as geography, migration, politics, economics, female emancipation, and evolving social mores. She has traced how a melting pot of knitting traditions found their way into American culture via vast waves of immigration, expanded opportunity for travel, and technology.” —Melanie Falick This is the history that Knitting America celebrates. Beautifully illustrated with vintage pattern booklets, posters, postcards, black-and-white historical photographs, and contemporary color photographs of knitted pieces in private collections and in museums, this book is an exquisite view of America through the handiwork of its knitters.

In Thomas Jefferson's day, 90 percent of the population worked on family farms. Today, in a world dominated by agribusiness, less than 1 percent of Americans claim farm-related occupations. What was lost along the way is something that Evelyn I. Funda experienced firsthand when, in 2001, her parents sold the last parcel of the farm they had worked since they married in 1957. Against that landscape of loss, Funda explores her family's three-generation farming experience in southern Idaho, where her Czech immigrant family spent their lives turning a patch of sagebrush into crop land. The story of Funda's family unfolds within the larger context of our country's rich immigrant history, western culture, and farming as a science and an art. Situated at the crossroads of American farming, Weeds: A Farm Daughter's Lament offers a clear view of the nature, the cost, and the transformation of the American West. Part cultural history, part memoir, and part elegy, the book reminds us that in losing our attachment to the land we also lose some of our humanity and something at the very heart of our identity as a nation.
