| Meer info | A Pocket of Civility looks back at the Dutch pioneers who settled in northwest Iowa near Sioux Center and Sioux County. Published in U.S. bicentennial year 1976, 100 years after the settlers arrived, the book reviews their homesteads, farming, businesses, schools, services, customs, recreation, transportation, wartime involvement, and, of course, their Reformed churches.\nIn the author's words: \"We call Sioux Center a pocket of civility, not to boast, but to express gratitude for what the struggling colony on the prairie became. Our forefathers aimed higher, perhaps for a pocket of virtue. Civility is somewhere along the road to that high goal.\"[The book] draws attention to what life was like in the sub-culture of Sioux Center while our nation was being heralded as the great melting pot. It helps you see what of the early pioneer's lifestyle melted into the American Way and what remained firm, untarnished by either time or circumstance.\" |
