Zonia Keywan takes the reader back to the late 19th century when Eastern Europeans were scouted by the Canadian government to break soil in the prairies to join the railway system between the east and the west, and to establish an agricultural resource to increase trading opportunities internationally. The title suggests that when one owns their own land, and can create it how they need to, live freely without fearing political warfare, they are in a sense greater than kings.
