This family memoir of Alta Wyly, settler of the Texas Panhandle, reveals her walk of faith. Her story of inspiration and courage is revealed through over 100 vintage photographs, paintings, and poems. She and her husband Jim bought land in Deaf Smith County, Texas in 1927. By 1929, they had a bumper wheat crop. Jim died in a tragic accident that fall, yet Alta managed her resources and emotions to keep her children on their farm through the Great Depression, the Dust Bowl and beyond. Learn about her secrets of survival and her humor as she nurtured her seven children through the Dirty Thirties. The faith of both her mother and grandmother strengthened her and inspires readers to find their strength in God. Excerpts from her diaries, letters and accounts given by her children and grandchildren allow the reader to experience the saga of her heroism.
