Preface[]

"Noreen, along with thousands of others, has suffered the paralysis caused by polio. Even after she makes a partial recovery, she has had to learn to walk again, using crutches. At the same time, Canada, and the Prairies in particular, are still in the grip of the Great Depression, with farmland turning to dust and men riding the rails in hopes of finding work elsewhere. It takes a strong spirit to keep hoping for the best."
