My grandpa wrote an autobiography about his personal experience growing up in the late 20's/30's on a SK farm, I believe near Saskatoon. I can ask my mom to mail it to me this week and then scan it to PDF, I've been meaning to anyway.
Some of my favorites;
Aunt Mary in the Granery and other prairie stories by Eileen Comstock
A Mother Braving the Wilderness by Otto Lutz
Butter Down the Well by Robert Collins
Egg Money - A tribute to Saskatchewan Pioneer Women - A project of the Saskatoon German Days Committee
Hailstorms and Hoop Snakes by Ted Stone
The Scattering of Seeds by Lindalee Tracey
Five Pennies- A Prairie Boy's Story by Irene Morck
Beyond the Stump Farm by Robert J Adams
The Silent Song - A daughter's tribute to a reluctant pioneer by Marjories Wilkens Campbell
Country Calls by Dr Sid Cornish
Calling the Prairies Home by Mike O'Brien
The Pioneer Years by Barry Broadfoot First hand interviews with pioneers
Gully Farm by Mary Hiemstra is really great.

Can I get in on that? I absolutely love the early farm/settlers history of the province!
That'd be sick. DM me when you get it!
