Description:
Laura Ingalls Wilder is one of the best known and bestselling authors of the 20th century, and her life is as fascinating as her stories. Laura witnessed firsthand the era of Westward expansion, travelling all across the midwest with her family in search of independence and prosperity. In this class you will learn about the beginnings of the pioneer movement and the development of the American frontier, Wilder’s turbulent early years as she crisscrossed the country by covered wagon, and her later years with her husband Almanzo on their Rocky Ridge farm in Missouri. We will also delve into the life of her only child, Rose Wilder Lane, who lived an equally remarkable life and the collaboration between mother and daughter that resulted in the enduring series, Little House on the Prairie.
