(Paperback)

The novel that first made Cather famous--a powerfully mythic tale of the American frontier told through the life of one extraordinary woman--in a handsome new volume. Includes a new Afterword. Revised reissue.

The first of her renowned prairie novels--a story that expresses Cather's conviction that "the history of every country begins in the heart of a man or a woman". When Alexandra Bergson takes over the family farm after her father's death, she falls under the spell of the rich, forbidding Nebraska prairie.
