Neighbors Mocked His Trench Cabin — Until It Stayed 30° Warmer in the Deadliest Blizzard

Описание: In the winter of 1881, Dakota homesteader Samuel Burch was mocked, judged, and called foolish for digging his home into the earth instead of building tall timber walls like everyone else. But when a deadly blizzard hit and temperatures plunged to 20 below, Samuel’s strange trench cabin did something no one expected. It stayed 30° warmer than the strongest cabins in the settlement—and it used a fraction of the firewood.
