it's enough to keep a person from getting any sleep
I just finished reading the last "Caroline" book, A Little House of Their Own. I'm sorry, but it simply went from bad to worse the more I read. The final straw? The book takes place in 1857 and the author has Charles Ingalls talking about taking a homestead in Dakota Territory!! I'm surprised she didn't just go ahead and have the Civil War start a few years early, too. It's not like anyone would notice.

You'd think that something called the Homestead Act of 1862 would have been a clue.
