Prairie Gold

"Prairie Gold" by Iowa Authors and Artists is a collection that captures Iowa's spirit in the early 1900s, shaped by a time of war and major social changes; it is a team effort of writers and artists, focusing on the beauty of Iowa's land, its people, and their way of life, all while promoting working together and helping others. Opening with words meant to encourage soldiers and comfort those at home during World War I, the book shows the strength and unity of Iowans. Through poems and stories inspired by local tales and the land around them, the authors paint a picture of a community bound together by its shared history and hopes for the future.
