Dancing at the Rascal Fair

Read Dancing at the Rascal Fair Storyline:

The central volume in Ivan Doig's acclaimed Montana trilogy, Dancing at the Rascal Fair is an authentic saga of the American experience at the turn of this century and a passionate, portrayal of the immigrants who dared to try new lives in the imposing Rocky Mountains.It is 1889 when we meet Agnus McCaskill and Bob Barclay -- immigrants,
"both of us nineteen and green as the cheese in the moon and trying our
double-damndest not to show it." They are setting off for a new land, in
America, in Montana. We follow their fortunes for the next
30 years in Two Medicine county at the base of the Rockies: the building
of homes and the raising of families, making a living and making a
life. Here is a tale of the uncertainties of friendship, of brutal
winters and battles of will, and of two loves; one delightful and
heartbreaking in its intensity, the other born of sadness, equally
moving and stoical devotion.
