USA Today Bestseller! One of Refinery29's Best Reads of September
In this novel authorized by the Little House Heritage Trust, Sarah
Miller vividly recreates the beauty, hardship, and joys of the
frontier in a dazzling work of historical fiction, a captivating
story that illuminates one courageous, resilient, and loving
pioneer woman as never before-Caroline Ingalls, "Ma" in Laura
Ingalls Wilder's beloved Little House books. In the frigid days of
February, 1870, Caroline Ingalls and her family leave the familiar
comforts of the Big Woods of Wisconsin and the warm bosom of her
family, for a new life in Kansas Indian Territory. Packing what
they can carry in their wagon, Caroline, her husband Charles, and
their little girls, Mary and Laura, head west to settle in a
beautiful, unpredictable land full of promise and peril. The
pioneer life is a hard one, especially for a pregnant woman with no
friends or kin to turn to for comfort or help. The burden of work
must be shouldered alone, sickness tended without the aid of
doctors, and babies birthed without the accustomed hands of mothers
or sisters. But Caroline's new world is also full of tender joys.
In adapting to this strange new place and transforming a rough log
house built by Charles' hands into a home, Caroline must draw on
untapped wells of strength she does not know she possesses. For
more than eighty years, generations of readers have been enchanted
by the adventures of the American frontier's most famous child,
Laura Ingalls Wilder, in the Little House books. Now, that familiar
story is retold in this captivating tale of family, fidelity,
hardship, love, and survival that vividly reimagines our past.
