Home and Homestead Dreams in Colorado Frontier
In a memoir style piece set in postwar Colorado, a settler describes the trials of moving with his wife from the East. He explains gendered expectations, the strain on women, and the rough, unfinished early home life. The narrative contrasts male ambition with a wife's homesick longing as they pursue a hopeful but difficult settlement. The excerpt closes noting a rail speed claim from the New York Herald about the Michigan Central Flyer run to Detroit.
