Book 2 of the Abercrombie Trail Series. Serena and Gust Gustafson lose their home and baby daughter during the Dakota Conflict of 1862.  Foolishly, Gust drags his grief-stricken wife to a small farm near Fort Pomme de Terre in Frontier Minnesota.

Review:

I read POMME DE TERRE with the greatest interest and enjoyment. It's a very vivid telling of this tragic American story. I've long been wanting something in fiction about the Great Sioux Uprising, and this book is the best I've seen. --Larry McMurtry, Pulitzer Prize winning author of Lonesome Dove, Academy Award Co-Winner with Diana Ossana for the screenplay, Brokeback Mountain.
