Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. (no dust jacket) [solid clean copy, light bumping at several corners, very slight fraying to cloth at lower extremities, small bookseller's rubber stamp (Bertrand Smith, Long Beach, California) on front pastedown]. First novel by an author who had an intermittent output over the course of the quarter-century or so. (I find four novels for her in OCLC, the last in 1952; she also seems to have been involved in social work in some fashion, and her name appears on several additional books in that field; she also contributed several magazine pieces on the topic of immigration to Harper's Magazine in the early 1920s.) This one's a romantic-triangle potboiler, about a girl who has to go to work (as a "pacer" in a pickle factory) at age 16 after her aunt the dressmaker becomes ill and can no longer work; she ends up in an unhappy marriage to the pickle factory owner, then subsequently falls in love with a poet. From the original New York Times review: "In short, the book belongs to the vast majority of the mediocre, the novels 'too bad for a blessing, too good for a curse.'" Ouch. Maybe that's why she didn't give up her day job.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Step back in time to the early 20th century and immerse yourself in the lives of homesteading families in rural Montana. This book delves into the challenges and triumphs of pioneering life, with a particular focus on the experiences of mothers and young children. The author paints a vivid picture of the harsh realities faced by these families, including isolation, limited access to healthcare, and the constant struggle against the elements. The narrative sheds light on the lack of prenatal care, the reliance on untrained birth attendants, and the high rates of maternal mortality. It also explores the impact of inadequate housing, sanitation, and nutrition on the well-being of children. Through detailed accounts and poignant stories, the book reveals the resilience and determination of these homesteading families as they strive to create a better future for themselves and their children. It raises important questions about the role of government and society in supporting families in remote areas and ensuring the health and welfare of all citizens. This book offers a compelling glimpse into a bygone era and provides valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities of rural life in early 20th-century America.
