what basically happens is that it begins by opening on a winter day, in the town of Hanover, Nebraska, somewhere between 1883 and 1890. The narrator introduced four major characters in the story, but the main one being Alexandra. Alexandra's father, John Bergson, was dying. He tells his two eldest sons that he was leaving the whole farmland, and the preservation that he had achieved in getting since his immigration from Sweden, to his daughter. It became clear that Alexandra was stronger and bolder than all of her brothers. However, when drought and depression came three years later, Alexandra became determined which allowed her to continue steadfastly. Many families, one of them being Carl Linstrum's (her future husband) family, sell their farms and move away. But Alexandra believed in the promise of the gentle country, and so she convinced her brothers to re-mortgage their farm and buy more land. She also convinces them to try innovative farming
