Spanning a century of a family's life, So Small a Circle tracks the rhythms of that family: the immigrant experience, the establishment of the family farm, the middle years of growth and stability, the gradual changes and disseminations that occurred through the passage of time. Memoirs encircle a fictionalized re-creation of an era of immigrant settlement on the plains of South Dakota and in the growing city of Sioux Falls, during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
