Dustship Glory

In this new edition of a prairie classic, Andreas Schroeder fictionalizes the true story of Tom Sukanen’s wild scheme to build an ocean-bound ship in the middle of a wheatfield in Saskatchewan. Set in the hardship of the “Dirty Thirties,” Dustship Glory presents us with Sukanen’s mythic effort to escape both the drought and pestilence of his time, as well as his own personal struggle to be free.
