520 $aCollins was born and raised on a Saskatchewan farm, but spent most of his adult life living elsewhere. He returns to his homeland to pay homage to it and its people, in a combination of stories, anecdotes, and history told in the voices of ordinary citizens. He explores the characteristics that define these people to themselves and to the rest of Canada: their pessimism, independence, friendliness, and self-reliance.
