First line
Virginia Woolf, who furnishes me the introductory epigraph, offers also my initial justification for a biography of a woman whose name few readers will recognize.
From the rear cover
'Holtz's book makes clear for the first time that (Lane) achieved something important and lasting in her writing with the Little House books. His argument about the collaboration between the two women is entirely convincing, and the next time I see the Little House series on the shelf at the bookstore, I'll imagine Rose Wilder Lane's name next to her mother's on their covers.'--Los Angeles Times Book Review
