"Laura Ingalls Wilder wrote stories that have defined the American frontier for generations
of readers. As both author and character in her own books, she became one of the most
famous figures in American children's literature. Her famous Little House on the Prairie
series, based on her childhood in Wisconsin, Kansas, Minnesota, and South Dakota,
blended memoir and fiction into a vivid depiction of 19th-century settler life that
continues to shape many Americans' understanding of the country's past. Poised between
fiction and fact, literature and history, Wilder's life is a fascinating window on
the American west. Placing Wilder's life and work in historical context, and including
previously unpublished material from the Wilder archives, Sallie Ketcham introduces
students to domestic frontier life, the conflict between Native Americans and infringing
white populations, and the West in public memory and imagination"
