Download Libertarians on the Prairie: Laura Ingalls Wilder, Rose Wilder Lane, and the Making of the Little House Books AudioBook Free
Years of children have dropped deeply in love with the pioneer saga of the Ingalls family, of Pa and Ma, Laura and her sisters, and their dedicated dog, Jack port. Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House books have taught an incredible number of Us citizens about frontier life, providing inspiration to many and in the process becoming icons of our own national personality. Yet few realize that this cherished best-selling series wandered far from the actual record of the Ingalls family and from what Laura herself thought as central truths about pioneer life. In such a groundbreaking narrative of literary detection, Christine Woodside reveals for the first time the full magnitude of the collaboration between Laura and her little girl, Rose Wilder Street. Rose hated farming and fled the family homestead as an adolescent, eventually learning to be a nationally prominent mag article writer, biographer of Herbert Hoover, and successful novelist, who distributed the political values of Ayn Rand and became coach to Roger Lea MacBride, the second Libertarian presidential prospect. Sketching on original manuscripts and characters, Woodside shows how Rose reshaped her mother's report into some heroic stories that rebutted the policies of the New Deal. Their key collaboration would lead with time to their estrangement. A fascinating look at the romance between two strong-willed women, Libertarians on the Prairie is also the deconstruction of the American misconception.
