Arguing that Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings was underestimated and underappreciated as one of the great American writers, this book presents the work that contributed to her once stellar position as a hero of American letters. It includes Rawlings' childhood publications in the ""Washington Post"" and ""McCall's Magazine"", early stories, poems, and more.

This collection of early work, college writing, newspaper pieces, and
stories of life in Florida by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings is an intimate
glimpse into the artistic development of a Pulitzer Prize-winning
author.
