Edited by Richard Marshall. Illustrated by Susan Sternau. This book contains 78 stories Wilder wrote for the Missouri Ruralist, a widely-read farm paper, between 1911 and 1918. The acceptance of these stories gave her confidence and skills to later write her Little House books. The stories are divided into general themes: Life on the Farm and in the Country, Making a Home, The Ways of the World, A Woman's Role. The editor provides a general introduction and notes and context throughout the book, as well as notes at the end of each section. Very good with very good jacket. Barnes & Noble. 1993. Hb, Dj.
