Volume 3:

     

   Almanzo, loving husband of Laura Ingalls Wilder, has remained a relatively unknown figure compared to his famous wife. 

   However, all that changes now. 

   In Discovering Almanzo: The Historical Almanzo J. Wilder, Little House fans will find the first full biography of this hardworking pioneer. Beginning with the Wilder family’s ancestors in England and continuing through to Almanzo’s death at age 92 in 1949, the amazing life of this man deserves a story all its own.

   After moving west from New York first to Minnesota, and then resettling in Dakota Territory, Almanzo marries Laura Ingalls when she is 18 and he is 28, and the young couple have a good life—until tragedy strikes. In less than a month, their baby boy dies and their lovely house burns to the ground. Soon afterward, Almanzo is stricken with diphtheria and has a stroke that leaves him permanently disabled.

   How does someone come back from such tragedies?

   Almanzo does, as he and Laura strive together to make a new life for themselves and their daughter. They ultimately find peace and happiness on Rocky Ridge farm in Missouri.
