Which was an obstacle to the settlement of the American West?
sukhopar [10]

These houses had the advantage of being inexpensive to build, as the homesteaders only needed to buy materials for constructing the windows, a door, and sometimes a roof, and sod was cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
