O Pioneers!, the first book in Willa Cather’s Great Plains Trilogy, unfolds along the crags and ridges of rough terrain that is harsh to all those who dwell here. Set in the still uncultivated Nebraska Prairie, the story is told through the lens of young Swedish-American woman Alexandra Bergson who has an uncanny head for business and an even stronger knack for spotting fertile land.
