About this listen
Stoneboats and Piglets provides a real-life glimpse into rural America during the 1920s and '30s through the eyes of a "young feller" named Larry, born on his parents' North Dakota homestead in 1922.
The nearest neighbors lived a mile or so away. Tappen, the nearest town, was a journey of several miles by horse-drawn wagon in summer and horse-drawn sleigh in winter.
The Drews and other families of the farming community supported themselves off the land. They were plenty busy and well-challenged!
Born into this atmosphere of resourcefulness and hard work, young Larry was both a keen observer and an enthusiastic participant.
While the story swirls throughout the prosperity of the '20s into the Depression of the '30s, Larry's memories shed light on the character and determination of his family and neighbors as they adapted and endured through this unique period of history before America's entry into World War II.
