Book Description
Excerpt from The Moccasin Ranch: A Story of Dakota Early in the gray and red dawn of a March morning in 1883, two wagons moved slowly out of Boomtown, the two-year-old "giant of the plains." As the teams drew past the last house, the strangeness of the scene appealed irresistibly to the newly arrived immigrants. The town lay behind them on the level, treeless plain like a handful of blocks pitched upon a russet robe.

Book Description
'The Moccasin Ranch' is a novel written by Hamlin Garland. The story begins with two wagons leaving the town of Boomtown in the early morning. The first wagon is carrying material for a house, driven by a blue-eyed man who is in awe of the scenery. The second wagon is driven by a young man named Bailey with boxes and barrels of groceries and hardware. As the sun rises, the landscape transforms and they see the vastness of the prairie with hills in the distance. Burke, the driver of the first wagon, looks in wonder at this new world and sees it as mystical and glorious.

Book Description
As a self-proclaimed native "son of the middle border" states of Wisconsin, Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota, and South Dakota, Hamlin Garland wrote short stories, novels, and essays about the harsh realities of farm life. At a time when rural romanticism was in literary vogue, he described conditions for midwestern farmers as they really were and promoted a wide variety of reforms to improve their lives, including women's rights legislation and single-tax reform. The volume reprints much of Garland's radical fiction and nonfiction from between 1887 and 1894, including four of his most outspoken stories depicting farm conditions of the time. Fueled by moral outrage and a cry for justice shaped by his own family's hardships in Wisconsin, Iowa, and South Dakota, the radical writing of his early career is filled with compassion and fury.
