Description

A young Englishman leaves his native country in 1853 for

America to find land and have the life he's always dreamed

about. As he journeyed to the West, he worked his way to the

Illinois Prairie. Ned is thankful for the family who he begins

working for and who have befriended him in his new country.

He has never before witnessed the faith, love, and friendship

they show him.

Hannah, a young girl in this family, finds him interesting, yet

peculiar in some ways. She tries to help him become accustomed

to the prairie she loves. What else awaits him in this land? Will

she be able to help make his dream become more than he could

have ever hoped for?

Englishman on the Prairie is a realistic fictional story based

partially on real-life ancestral characters.
