This is a story of land, a farm that was not just the giver of life's sustenance but a character in its own right, with its own spirit and vitality found in its black earth, pastures, woods, and sloughs as it moves through seasons.

When faded, creased papers from the early 1900s were stumbled upon in an old E.B. Eddy matchbox in her maternal grandfather's farmhouse, Jan Kuzina began a quest to learn more about her family's history.

As she researched, an incredible story emerged, one of faith, hope, perseverance, and resilience of the human spirit.

This is the saga of three generations-beginning with Ukrainian immigrants Ilko and Paraska Huziak, who came to the Canadian West in 1900 as land grant recipients-and their way of life on their homestead.

Through two World Wars, the Depression, weather disasters, financial crises, and the advent of modern machinery, these determined homesteaders kept the farm viable, united in their love for the land and each other.

Stooks on the Horizon: The Story of a Prairie Family Homestead gives readers an authentic glimpse into nineteenth century rural life on the Prairies, including the struggles that these early settlers endured as they made Canada their home, and the legacy that they left behind.
