About This Item
Houghton Mifflin Company, 1914. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Good. Withdrawn from Leader Farm Library (for use only of subscribers to Vinita Weekly Leader) with labels on spine & front endpaper, but otherwise very good; spotting to covers. Stewart saw fame in her own day as a woman homesteader; this book and its sequel were the basis for the 1979 film Heartland.
Synopsis
"Peopled with the kinds of characters most novelists only dream of"(Christian Science Monitor), this classic account of American frontier living captures the rambunctious spirit of a pioneer who set out in 1909 to prove that a woman could ranch. Stewart's captivating missives from her homestead in Wyoming bring to full life the beauty, isolation, and joys of working the prairie.
