My Antonia, History Through Literature Wall Poster

Quote Appearing on This Print: “Cautiously I slipped from under the buffalo hide, got up on my knees and peered over the side of he wagon. There seemed to be nothing to see, no hills or fields. If there was a road, I could not make it out in the faint starlight. There was nothing but land: not a country at all, but the material out of which countries are made.”
