Land is a novel written by James Platt and published in 1886. The story is set in the American West during the late 1800s, and it follows the lives of a group of settlers who are trying to make a life for themselves on the frontier. The main character is a man named David Langston, who is a farmer and rancher. He is a hard-working and honest man who is determined to succeed in his new home.The novel explores the challenges and hardships that the settlers face as they try to make a living in a harsh and unforgiving environment. They have to deal with droughts, floods, and other natural disasters, as well as conflicts with Native Americans and other settlers. The story also touches on themes of love, family, and the struggle for survival.Land is a powerful and moving novel that captures the spirit of the American West during a time of great change and upheaval. It is a testament to the resilience and determination of the people who settled this land, and it continues to be a classic of American literature to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
