Summary | "Two Wyoming Girls and Their Homestead Claim: A Story for Girls" by Carrie L. Marshall is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows the lives of sisters Jessie and Leslie as they navigate challenges on their homestead in Wyoming. The narrative explores themes of resilience, family, and the trials of single-parent farming in the untamed West. The opening of the book introduces the girls and their father, who are dealing with the difficulties of life on the homestead. The setting is marked by a fierce spring storm, reflecting the struggles they face while trying to work the land and contend with a troublesome neighbor, Mr. Horton, who wants their claim for himself. As they prepare breakfast, Jessie expresses concern over the mines her father works in, foreshadowing future dangers. The interactions between the family reveal their close bond and the weight of responsibility on their shoulders, especially in the wake of their mother’s death. The opening sets the stage for a tale of adventure and adversity that the sisters must confront head-on. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
