Gripping. Really recommend this one if you are interested case studies. Not too technical either.

This was a great read for middle school / jr high kids.

It is not schmaltzy at all and really emphasizes the incredible hard work homesteaders went through.

This is honestly kind of a snooze-fest. Picked up a little bit around issue 4, but not sure I'll continue.
