Pioneer Girl: The Annotated Autobiography

Excellent work. Laura Ingalls Wilder wrote her autobiography in a no-nonsense style for her daughter Rose. Later, this memoir was tweaked into the children's stories that we all loved. What really fascinated me however, was the painstaking research done by Pamela Hill, that appears down the margins of the pages of the memoir. The details and research done by Hill answer many questions and clarify so many details about the history of Wilder's life. We find out how much Wilder left out of the Little House books to simplify them and make them into Children's books.

I would recommend this for anyone who wants to know more of Wilder's real story. This book contains much more description of the harsh life of the homesteaders in the late 1800s. This is a very scholarly work, it is like a dissertation. I highly recommend this for anyone interested in the settlement of the West, and in Laura Ingalls Wilder specifically.

About the Author

Laura Ingalls Wilder (1867 1957) finished her autobiography, Pioneer Girl, in 1930 when she was sixty-three years old. Throughout the 1930s and into the early 1940s, Wilder utilized her original manuscript to write a successful series of books for young readers. Her daughter, journalist Rose Wilder Lane, served as her editor and borrowed from her mother s life story to write two novels of her own. Pioneer Girl, which chronicles sixteen years of Wilder s pioneer youth, is where all the stories begin. Wilder died in Mansfield, Missouri, at ninety years of age on February 10, 1957.
