About the book: The writer of the following letters which comprise this book is a young woman who lost her husband in a railroad accident and went to Denver to seek support for herself and her two-year-old daughter, Jerrine. Turning her hand to the nearest work, she went out by the day to work as a house cleaner and laundress. Later, seeking to better herself, she accepted employment as a housekeeper for a well-to-do Scottish cattleman, Mr. Stewart, who had taken up a quarter-section in Wyoming. The letters, written through several years to a former employer in Denver, tell of her new life in the new country. They are genuine letters, and are printed as written, except for occasional omissions and alterations of names. The letters begin in 1909, apparently right after a homestead act made it possible for the author, Elinore Pruitt Stewart, to claim a homestead of 160 acres in Wyoming. Ms. Stewart is a very resourceful woman as well as a wonderful story-teller. -

About the book: The St. Nicholas referred to in the title is not Santa Claus but a magazine founded in 1873 Many sources refer to St. Nicholas as a children’s magazine but the articles and stories in this collection are not childish by modern American standards. The magazine published some of the country’s best writers including Louisa May Alcott, Laura Richards, Mark Twain, Joel Chandler Harris and Frances Hodgson Burnett. Among the noted authors who first published in the magazine were F. Scott Fitzgerald and E.B. White.This collection contains many articles and a few stories. Among the articles are one about alligators and one about catching terrapins. There are also articles about New Orleans, St Augustine, an earthquake at Charleston, S.C. and American rivers. The St. Augustine article reads as though it was placed by the chamber of commerce or a tourist bureau. One of the better stories is The Watermelon Stockings by Alice Caldwell Hegan about a disobedient but brave little girl. Another is The Creature With No Claws by Joel Chandler Harris.
