Home Below Hell's Canyon

Summary: Great Period Piece
Review: Like Douglas's "Of Men and Mountains", this book evokes a wonderful but challenging earlier period. In addition to giving a great sense of homesteading, the books gives a beautiful sense of the family, and the people who comprised their community.

Summary: Wonderful book
Review: This is a terrific personal account of life in Hell's Canyon. It allows the read to vicariously live through the writer, who has a special ability to capture the reader's heart. Raising sheep on the hills of Hell's Canyon and enduring isolation for long stretches must have been hard, and the writer details it well. We also come to learn why she loved it.
