Summary:
Alone, young Anna immigrated to America from Norway at 16, running from cruelty. Honor forced her to leave New York, running again, this time from love. Working her way across America she brought her work ethic, honor, and love with her. On a Dakota homestead Anna found love again, but with it and her life there came an abundance of hardship, sometimes taking her faith and courage close to the breaking point. This novel follows the true life story of Anna. Life on their prairie homestead was often harsh and the country and its perils were often unyielding, but it also had its heartwarming and rewarding moments and triumphs. The Winds of Time follows Anna and her family through the Dirty Thirties, The Great Depression, the year of the wolves, the World Wars, and homesteading hardships in their new country.
