""The trilogy begun with 'The Trees' closes with this final chapter in one segment of pioneer-frontier America, the story of Sayward Wheeler, who came from the wilderness, and in her old age sought again to reestablish the link she herself had broken. The story is told in episodes, and together they form an intricate pattern of a growing frontier town-a frontier family taking on the trappings of civilization, striving to forget-or to ignore-the sturdy roots from which they sprang."
