Description

The prairie schoolhouse was a product of the Western Homestead Era, those years beginning in the late nineteenth century when the federally owned short grass prairies and sagebrush country were opened to farming. In beautiful, straightforward photographs, John Martin Campbell has documented what remains of the schoolhouses of that era.
