A Prairie Girl`s Faith: The Spiritual Legacy of Laura Ingalls Wilder, Hines Stephen W.

With her extraordinary God-given pluck, the creator of the epic Little House series survived the harshness of frontier life--from the heartbreak of sudden crop losses to murderous storms to unrelenting loneliness. Yet in every season, Laura found strength through her relationship with God.

Now, several generations later, Lauras insights about work and rest, trust in the face of hardship, and the value of faith are more relevant than ever. Through Lauras discerning newspaper pieces as an early advice columnist, interviews with people who knew her personally, and extensive investigation by Stephen Hines, we witness an authentic faith that comes not from pretending all is well but from growing through difficult times.
