Better than the first book. And it is interesting to see how colonialist saw native Americans during there expansion out west. However you can tell this book was written in a less socially aware era, and I would have appreciated that the history of colonialism was spoken of more candidly, and clarified the plight of native Americans during that time. As ingalls wilder added modern context of clarifition of what a specific disease was (malaria) but she did not do the same for the trail of tears and forced resettlement of native Americans/indigenous people across turtle island
