A gorgeous rendering of one family’s determination to settle the wilderness, with seasons and generations to follow. It’s no mean feat to be able to go from “Yonder, way over yonder,” to “There, just over there,” in thirty-something pages. With saturated paintings and spare, if lyrical, prose, here is an epic American story, full of history and hope.
