“the two strelow boys, robert and george, with john conrad, my two brothers, and i, put out into the storm for our homes. we had not gone a rod when we found ourselves in a heap, in a heavy drift of snow. we took hold of each other’s hands, pulled ourselves out, got into the road, and the cold north wind blew us down the road a half mile south, where the strelow boys and john conrad had to go west a mile or more. when they reached a bridge in a ravine, the little fellows sheltered a while under the bridge, a wooden culvert, but robert, the oldest, insisted that they push on thru the blinding storm for their homes. in the darkness they stumbled in, and by degrees their parents thawed them out, bathed their frozen hands, noses, ears and cheeks, while the boys cried in pain.“my brothers and i could not walk thru the deep snow in the road, so we took down the rows of corn stalks to keep from losing ourselves ’till we reached our pasture fence. walter was too short to wade the deep snow in the field, so henry and i dragged him over the top. for nearly a mile we followed the fence ’till we reached the corral and pens. in the howling storm, we could hear the pigs squeal as they were freezing in the mud and snow. sister ida had opened the gate and let the cows in from the field to the sheds, just as the cold wind struck and froze her skirts stiff around her like hoops. the barn and stables were drifted over when we reached there. the roaring wind and stifling snow blinded us so that we had to feel thru the yard to the door of our house. “the lamp was lighted. mother was walking the floor, wringing her hands and calling for her boys. pa was shaking the ice and snow from his coat and boots. he had gone out to meet us but was forced back by the storm. we stayed in the house all that night. it was so cold that many people froze.”

Explanation:

You have to infer a great deal to answer some of this. First of all, the 6 boys were out in the worst weather imaginable, without any mode of transportation. They were completely on foot. Either the 3 families were very poor or they were out when they should not have been or the storm struck suddenly. No sane parent would let them go anywhere if the storm was raging when they left. This likely was an era either when there were not autos or during the depression when no one could afford a car. I have no clue why they didn't have a horse drawn buggy or wagon. They also lived far apart somewhere in the country. The distances they had to walk suggests that. If they lived in a city, the could knock on any door to seek shelter.

The intended audience is not a group of scholars or even adults perhaps. Young teens or pre teens would be my guess. It's almost entirely action. The details are those used to convey how really hard it was to get home because they likely could not see very well. The details also suggest the struggle they had with some way to keep going straight. (Corn fields, pasture fences for guidance.)

The author is trying to convey what pre modern midwestern society winters were like. They were harsh cruel and almost unimaginably cold. We still get those winters where I live, but we are much better equipped to deal with them.

The author's point of view  is that of a participant. He's not trying to persuade you of anything. He just wants to convey coldness.

before there were tanks, machine guns, windmills, and solar panels, the first civilizations emerged that create the history of humanity which provided the larger context for western civilization. uses of weaponry and technology were used very differently in the ancient civilizations than they are today. relating back to the times of the ancient mesopotamian civilization, technology kept advancing throughout the ancient egyptian civilization into the ancient greek civilization, and then finally the ancient roman civilization. as techniques and strategies were past down from civilization to civilization, each shared its own similarities, as well as varied differences. one trait they had in common was to commit violence and economically overpower one another. technology has ultimately advanced due to the knowledge transferred from generation to generation. uses of sophisticated weaponry and devices have created more opportunity for warfare and improvement in the work place. ancient civilizations became more powerful due to the advancements of technology. technology did not only create the use of violence, but it also the economies grow and become stronger, because production of trading goods rose like never before. the rivers, such as the nile, tigris, and euphrates all flourished, as well as destructed civilizations. each civilization had different uses for these rivers, however, some benefited more than others. when analyzing ancient civilizations, there   are things you must understand
