Autobiography by the American author Mary Hunter Austin published in 1932. Most famous for her Western literature and writings on Indian life. Over half the book involves her early years before moving west. The final section covering the period after she left California and primarily lists the people she met and places she went. Perhaps that was the style of the times or perhaps the author thought other areas had been fully explored in her fiction.
