Using unpublished manuscripts, letters, financial records, and more, Fraser gives fresh insight into the life of a woman beloved to many. Intensively researched, this is definitely a fascinating read, and one that I plan on reading again -- maybe the next time I re-read the Little House series. -- Jennifer Ohzourk for LibraryReads,"--Novelist. 000801535 520__ $$a"Millions of readers of Little House on the Prairie believe they know Laura Ingalls--the pioneer girl who survived blizzards and near-starvation on the Great Plains, and the woman who wrote the famous autobiographical books. But the true saga of her life has never been fully told. Now, drawing on unpublished manuscripts, letters, diaries, and land and financial records, Caroline Fraser--the editor of the Library of America edition of the Little House series--masterfully fills in the gaps in Wilder's biography. Revealing the grown-up story behind the most influential childhood epic of pioneer life, she also chronicles Wilder's tumultuous relationship with her journalist daughter, Rose Wilder Lane, setting the record straight regarding charges of ghostwriting that have swirled around the books." -- Publisher's description 000801535 586__ $$aPulitzer Prize, 2018. 000801535 60010 $$aWilder, Laura Ingalls,$$d1867-1957. 000801535 60010 $$aLane, Rose Wilder,$$d1886-1968. 000801535 650_0 $$aAuthors, American$$y20th century$$vBiography. 000801535 650_0 $$aWomen pioneers$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 000801535 650_0 $$aFrontier and pioneer life$$zUnited States. 000801535 655_7 $$aBiographies.$$2lcgft 000801535 85200 $$bgen$$hPS3545.I342$$iZ6455$$i2017 000801535 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:801535$$pGLOBAL_SET 000801535 980__ $$aBIB 000801535 980__ $$aBOOK
