Bucking the Sun by I Doig

Bucking the Sun is the story of the Duff family, homesteaders driven from the Montana bottomland to work on one of the New Deal's most audacious projects--the damming of the Missouri River.

Through the story of each family member--a wrathful father, a mettlesome mother, and three very different sons, and the memorable women they marry--Doig conveys a sense of time and place that is at once epic in scope and rich in detail.

Ivan Doig was born in Montana in 1939 and grew up beside the majestic Rocky Mountain Front, which has inspired much of his writing. He is the author of eight prior novels, the most recent of which is The Whistling Season, as well as three works of nonfiction, including This House of Sky, for which he received a lifetime Outstanding Achievement Award from the Western Literary Association. He is based in Seattle.
