"Vikings of the Prairie, in dialogues between N C Hagen's mother and father and a friend of long standing, tells the early twentieth-century history of the Flickertail State, particularly in the northwestern area. It also offers an authentic picture of how the early settlers thought and lived in the course of their struggles to tame an unfriendly wilderness, and gives overdue recognition to the quiet and stoic (though often humorous) heroism of a people whose truly remarkable exploits have been neglected because they were "not conceived in the usual Western tradition of gun-smoke and cattle towns." ; 206 pages; Signed by Author.
