SUMMARY:Author Talk -John J. Fry
DESCRIPTION:\nHear a presentation by John J. Fry about his latest book “A Prairie Faith: The Religious Life of Laura Ingalls Wilder”.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn this presentation, based on his book, A Prairie Faith: The Religious Life of Laura Ingalls Wilder, John Fry shines a light on Wilder’s quiet faith. The book surveys the Little House books, Pioneer Girl, and Wilder’s lesser-known writings, including her letters, poems, and newspaper columns. Analyzing this wealth of sources, it reveals how Wilder’s down-to-earth faith and Christian morality influenced her life and work. He also considers how Laura’s daughter Rose Wilder Lane contributed to the Little House Books. Interweaving these investigations with Wilder’s perennially interesting life story, A Prairie Faith illustrates the Christian practices of pioneers and rural farmers during this dynamic period of American history.\n
