The family saga of Johann Gehring, who at sixteen years old, travels to America. He begins his new life in the prairies of Nebraska. There he learns to dig a well and exist amid nature’s foes: tornados, prairie fires, and freezing winters.
Johann changes his name to John and finds love with Helena.
Together they build a home and raise five independent children including the head-strong, Berta. Helena teaches her children to be as strong as the prairie cottonwood. She warns that someday they will need to bend in the wind and support each other.
Berta vow to be as formidable as the cottonwood tree — battle scars and all. She will be tested family deaths, caring for her siblings over the history of Nebraska. The Gehring family stands united against the Stock Market Crash, the Dust Bowl, the Great Depression, Spanish Flu, and German prejudices of WWI.
The Gehring family remains strong in their love of family, faith, and the blessings of the Nebraska Sandhills.
