Before highways, before roadside motels, two Englishwomen drove a motor caravan across the Canadian prairie.
Across the Prairie in a Motor Caravan by F. H. Eva Hasell and Sayle is exactly what it sounds like: a firsthand account of a 1920s journey by van across the open West, delivering Sunday School lessons to remote homesteads along the way. Part travelogue, part social history, and an unintentional portrait of prairie settlement in its rawest years.
