Prairie Cooks: Glorified Rice, Three-Day Buns, and Other Reminiscences (Bur Oak Original)
Editorial Reviews
Bloomsbury Review
"The gentle care Young brings to her storytelling is reminiscent of other women writers from the plains, most particularly Bess Streeter Aldrich and Willa Cather. Her style and subject matter invite favorable comparison to these important predecessors....Her prose is a pleasure, especially in this day of cynicism and commentary on the human animal's disdain for its own well-being."
The Source
"...presents a vivid picture of life in the early part of this century on the plains of the Dakotas. In this harsh and demanding landscape, homesteading Norwegian immigrants clung mightily to the traditions--culinary and otherwise--of their native land."
