She immerses herself in all things Little Houseexploring the story from fact to fiction, and from the TV shows to the annual summer pageants in Lauras hometowns. Whether shes churning butter in her apartment or sitting in a replica log cabin, McClure is always in pursuit of the Laura experience. Along the way she comes to understand how Wilders life and work have shaped our ideas about girlhood and the American West.The Wilder Life is a loving, irreverent, spirited tribute to a series of books that have inspired generations of American women. It is also an incredibly funny first-person account of obsessive reading, and a story about what happens when we reconnect with our childhood touchstonesand find that our old love has only deepened.
