Spanning nearly a century, The Long Field tells the true, dramatized story of three generations of the Vyborny family-beginning in the heart of Bohemia and ending on the rugged plains of the American West.
In 1851, Jan Vyborny leaves behind religious persecution and a looming military draft to seek freedom in America. But the promised land brings brutal hardship: fire, poverty, and heartbreaking loss. His son Henry, forged in the crucible of the Civil War, seeks peace on a Wisconsin homestead-only to be drawn westward again, chasing land, work, and something he cannot name. At last, Henry's son Albert carries the family legacy to Washington state, where he and his young wife Annie carve a life from dust, raise a new generation, and leave a legacy rooted deep in the land.
Based on real family history and enriched with fictionalized dialogue and texture, The Long Field is a moving portrait of survival, belief, and the immigrant spirit-told with quiet power and unflinching honesty.
