Hamlin Garland opens up life in both Wisconsin and the mountains out West the late 1800s, then proceeds to illuminate Chicago and New York City in the early 1900s.
An early believer in equal marriage and feminism, his writings were unique though they took a long time to be valued. Though proud and with a slow growing reputation,
he remained honest about himself, his disappointments, his restless feelings and depressions. This book is the sequel to SON OF THE MIDDLE BORDER. Both are
invaluable for understanding the early settlers of Middle Wisconsin. ( )

1687 A Daughter of the Middle Border, by Hamlin Garland (read 10 Jan 1982) (Pulitzer Biography prize for 1922) This is the direct sequel of A Son of the Middle Border, covering the time up to Garland's father's death in 1914. It is really a repulsive book. Garland is a super-pessimist. When he talks about good times he bemoans the fact that they are past--his bemoaning of past misfortunes seems to be what he likes. Obviously the poor guy had no Faith and he would have been a lot better off with such. The book is an awful book, and I am glad to be done with it. ( )
