Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.:
Taken from Chapter 1: Old Land, New Homes The settlers had to learn how to build homes by using materials they found in nature. In areas with many trees, settlers built log homes. In the prairies, where wood was scarce, they built houses using grass-covered soil. In desert areas, settlers used clay to make bricks for their home.
Review:
This series shows the settlers' homes and way of life and the changes they represented to the native population. Good coverage of each topic will make these books useful for research -- Resource Links, Feb. 1999
