Book Description

Lincoln, NE: Dageforde Publishing Inc, 1991. "Award winning Author Nellie Snyder Yost weaves recollections, interviews, newspaper accounts and court documents into a horrifying but readable true story of farm wife Annie Cook's part in 'the little Chicago of the west' era of North Platte, Nebraska, history." As the contract holder for the 'poor farm' in Lincoln County, Annie's abuse of the residents shows "the dark side of 'the good old days' and a reminder that great wrongs can still be committed when respectable people look the other way". This book has recently been re-printed and is available new. Copyright date remains the same on new copies as the original publication, 1991.. Soft Cover. New. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
