Courage and hardship of pioneers in old Jules tale
A critique of self-pity among modern readers contrasts with founder hardships in Mari Landox's Old Jules. The piece recalls Westward migration risks, droughts, starvation, and repeated relocations under brutal winters, noting only a few Forty-Niners endured. It argues courage endures but self-pity does not, then shifts to remarks on war causes and birth rates, citing Havelock Ellis and global demographics, and closes with a thank you card for a bereavement.
