The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of Rowbotham's journey. He describes the difficulties of traveling long distances by train and the harsh living conditions he encountered upon arriving at his destination. He also discusses the challenges of finding work and making a living in the prairie lands, as well as the dangers of illness and disease. Throughout the book, Rowbotham provides vivid descriptions of the landscape and the people he meets along the way. He also offers his own opinions and observations on the social and political climate of the prairie lands during the late 19th century. Overall, A Trip to Prairie Land: Being a Glance at the Shady Side of Emigration is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of the American West or the experiences of early emigrants to the region.In Two Parts, Part 1, The Life On The Prairie; Part 2, The Farming Prospects Of Northern Dakota.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
