Abstract
Margaret V. Ott has given a valuable gift to the pioneer descendants living close to the banks of the Big Muddy. From detailed journals, letters, and diaries, she traces the lives of the J. Sterling Morton family as they construct their home, Arbor Lodge, on the Morton Ranch near Nebraska City. Many in my transitional generation will find elements of their own history in Mrs. Ott's fictionalized biography, Sterling's Carrie.
