Summary, etc |
"The vast ocean of level prairie which lies to the west of Red River must be seen in its extraordinary aspects, before it can be rightly valued and understood in reference to its future occupation by an energetic and civilized race, able to improve its vast capabilities and appreciate its marvelous beauties." So wrote John Fleming, a member of the Canadian Red River Exploring Expedition of 1857. This book sheds light on whether North Dakota's early pioneers were able to recognize and then develop the capabilities of this "vast ocean of level prairie." Water and who owned it, who controlled it, who could make it work for them would be central to the growth of North Dakota. |
