In May 1936 Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace wrote to Caroline Henderson to praise her contributions to American 'understanding of some of our farm problems.' His comments reflected the national attention aroused by Hendersons articles, which had been published in Atlantic Monthly since 1931. Even today, Hendersons articles are frequently cited for her vivid descriptions of the dust storms that ravaged the Plains.Caroline Henderson was a Mount Holyoke graduate who moved to Oklahomas panhandle to homestead and teach in 1907. This collection of Hendersons letters and articles published from 1908 to1966 presents an intimate portrait of a womans life in the Great Plains. Her writing mirrors her love of the land and the literature that sustained her as she struggled for survival.Alvin O. Turner has collected and edited Hendersons published materials together with her private correspondence. Accompanying biographical sketch, chapter introductions, and annotations provide details on Hendersons life and context for her frequent literary allusions and comments on contemporary issues.
