Description
Prairie Fires: The American Dreams of Laura Ingalls Wilder
Caroline Fraser masterfully fills in the gaps in Laura Ingalls' biography, setting the record straight regarding charges of ghostwriting and uncovering the grown-up story behind her childhood epic.
Set against nearly a century of epochal change, from the Homestead Act to the Great Depression, Wilder's dramatic life provides a unique perspective on American history and our national mythology of self-reliance.
