Summary

The Neihardt Study is the most important building associated with the distinguished literary career of John Gneisenau Neihardt, poet laureate of Nebraska, and author of some twenty-five volumes of poetry, fiction, and philosophy. The house, located in Bancroft, is believed to have been constructed in the 1890s as a residence. During the years 1911-21, Neihardt rented the dwelling for use as an office and library. The property is owned by the Nebraska State Historical Society and operated as a branch museum.
