A HOOSIER CHRONICLE IS ONE OF NICHOLSON'S MOST FAMOUS NOVELS!!
Early in the novel Nicholson compares Indiana to both Egypt and Italy: "There is always corn in their Egypt, and no village is so small but it lifts a smokestack toward a sky that yields nothing to Italy's." Nicholson clearly feels a deep pride for his native state.
Nicholson seemed quite satisfied with the landscapes of Indiana and the way they had had altered by its settlers. The state seal, he writes, depicts "a sturdy pioneer felling a tree while behind him a frightened buffalo gallops madly into oblivion".
This description is more revealing than Nicholson might have meant it to be. It demonstrates the lingering attitude that nature was something wild to be tamed and portrays the settlers as heroic conquerors.
