Dangerous Times for a Democrat
Don’t you just love a good story?
Better yet, one set in Pawnee County.
Sharla Sitzman of Table Rock collects stories from yesteryear and yesterday.
I occasionally pick up a history book and flip through the pages. The other day the book was an 800-page tome that was one of three volumes of J. Sterling Morton’s Illustrated History of Nebraska. The copyright date? 1906.
