Sod house building in Western Nebraska described by a neighbor
The fragment recounts sod construction with thick double walls, corner posts for a roof frame, and sod or brush roofing. It contrasts brick plastering ease, notes small windows, dirt doors, and the warm but cheap nature of sod houses popular in the Platte valley, including a plastering effort and a boast for Western Nebraska’s invigoration.
