At first their new life is full of promise: The wheat is high the dugout is warm and cozy and a new baby is born to share in their happiness. Then disaster strikes and David must go east for the winter to find work. Molly is left alone with the baby--with nothing but her own courage to face the dangers of the harsh prairie winter.</p>
