by Rose Wilder Lane (Author)

In Old Home Town, Rose Wilder Lane has recreated small-town society of pre-World War I America with a precise feeling for decorum, dress, and kitchen dialogue. Like Sherwood Anderson in Winesburg, Ohio, she describes a community through the stories of certain memorable citizens. The overlay of nostalgia cannot hide some sharp observations about marriage and women's rights. Rose Wilder Lane, the daughter of Laura Ingalls Wilder (Little House books), is the author of Free Land.
