Set against the backdrop of 1921 Saskatchewan, the narrative follows four teenagers as they navigate economic hardship, harsh weather, and family struggles, including their mother's mental illness and their father's detachment. The story emphasizes their resilience and mutual support while trying to preserve their Gettysburg roots. One sibling's journey to become a minister is marked by challenges in adapting to urban life, leading to a career as a house-painter. The author, an unexpected child, later uncovers the family's complex dynamics and their eventual reunion in Southern California.
