Editorial Reviews: Though best known as the author of the Little House books, Laura Ingalls Wilder led a full, rich life that spanned almost a century of American history. All through her life Laura saved mementos of her past, including early writings, letters, drawings, and photographs, which have been lovingly preserved in private and public collections across the country. Now, for the first time ever, these photographs, writings, and memorabilia have been gathered together in one incredible volume by noted Little House historian William Anderson. Each gorgeous page of LAURA'S ALBUM is a doorway into the private world of Laura Ingalls Wilder, and offers a unique glimpse of what her life was like. Here is the fascinating true story of this remarkable pioneer woman's life as well as an unforgettable tale of our own American past.
Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Laura's Album: A Remembrance Scrapbook of Laura Ingalls Wilder Comment: I thought this scrapbook would be like the "Egyptology", "Wizardology" etc. books; with the removable pieces inside the book. Customer Rating: Summary: A Museum in Book Form Comment: Laura's Album shows readers actual snapshots from the life of writer, Laura Ingalls Wilder. Apparently Mrs. Wilder found it difficult to throw things away. As a result the reader is treated to pictures of some of the people and objects described in the Little House books. There are pictures of her entire family and pictures of the fiddle that Pa plays so merrily in many of the books. The reader is also given a brief history of the wanderings and lives of Mrs. Wilder and her kinfolk. Much of the focus is on Mrs. Wilder's adult life and what she did as her fame began to spread. This book is a must for fans of the Little House books and anybody who is interested in what rural life was like in the United States in the late 1800s. Customer Rating: Summary: Laura's Album Comment: This book is excellent. I bought it because I especially liked the format, layout, & all the photographs & old documents reproduced.
