This book, written by Lewis B. Miller and first serialized in National Stockman and Farmer in 1909, tells the story of the Wemmikaw area where residents confront the aftermath of a levee breaking, threatening homes, crops, and livestock. The narrative highlights the courage, resourcefulness, and teamwork of the community, particularly focusing on the young boys who assume responsibility in the absence of the household heads. They skillfully manage to save most of the buildings, livestock, and some crops, showcasing both human resilience and ingenuity in the face of natural disaster.
