Hey, OP, I read and reread the Little House books as a kid, but before judging, or for that matter lauding, any of the characters, remember that Rose Wilder edited the shit out of the books to promote her libertarian agenda and that Laura also lionized and overlooked a lot of the nastier aspects of her life in the books. None of them were ever sucessful farmers, for one, not even Alonzo.

I don't disagree, but as for the farming part, I don't think I can remember one time the crops actually came out well, so I can't say I see Wilder(s) lionizing of the characters on that particular fact.

That being said, yeah, the annotated original version of her manuscript is harrowing.
