Synopsis

In August 1928, Annie and Henry Kenoyer decided it was in the best interest of their family to move to Maine from their home in Iowa with their ten children, ages one to seventeen. They were a migrant family, having already moved twenty-six times throughout South Dakota and Iowa, but this 1400-mile trip, in two1920s vehicles, would prove a challenge to them all . . . not the least of their concerns were food (or lack of it) and places to camp for the night, out in the open, vulnerable to all weather conditions. This is a true story told from the perspective of eight-year-old Ruth Elizabeth Kenoyer, the seventh of the ten Kenoyer children.
