The Wilder life : my adventures in the lost world of Little house on the prairie / Wendy McClure.

McClure, Wendy. (Author).

Summary:

In this funny and thoughtful guide to a romanticized version of the American expansion west, children's book editor and memoirist McClure (I'm Not the New Me) attempts to recapture her childhood vision of "Laura World" (i.e., the world of Laura Ingalls Wilder and her Little House books about an 1880s pioneer family).
