Miller chronicles the life and death challenges that Nebraska pioneers faced on that fateful day in 1888.

Unless you've lived through a blizzard, you really don't understand the intensity of the storm, but at least this book gives you some idea of it's impact. A quick read that enlightens about one room country schools, and the differing enviroment for early education. A good historical account.

Bought this for a gift for my middle school granddaughter then ordered a second copy for my neighbor's granddaughter. I could recall my dad telling the story of this storm with a monument erected near a schoolhouse outside of Ord,NE where a teacher led her students to safety. I also read about this years ago in my history class.

A well written fictional account of an actual episode of Nebraska history this book is very interesting reading. Reading this story on a cooling late summer evening, I found myself shivering as the description of the blizzard drew me into the blowing cold whiteout. I would recommend this book for all readers, young and old alike.
