520 $aMary Austin (1868-1934)--eccentric, independent, and unstoppable--was 20 when her mother moved the family west. Austin's first look at her new home "changed her horizons and marked the beginning of her understanding, not only about who she was, but where she needed to be." She became the voice of the American West. In 1903, she published her first book, The Land of Little Rain, a wholly original look at the West's desert and its ethnically diverse peoples. Defined by the places she lived, Austin also defined the places themselves, including Carmel, with its itinerant community of western writers, and Santa Fe, where she lived the last ten years of her life. This rich new biography explores Austin's life and achievement with resonance, depth, and understanding, telling the larger story of the emerging importance of California and the Southwest to the American consciousness.--From publisher description.
