Book Overview
This book is an edition of the 40-year diary of Martha Fransworth, Kansan, who from 1882 to 1922 kept a daily record extraordinarily rich in public and private endeavors. Not only historically interesting but emotionally moving, her record is of a lower middle-class life lived just this side of--chronically--the American frontier.

Couldn't Put It Down!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
If you like reading about pioneer women, then you will love the diary of Martha Farnsworth. I could not put it down the first night I started reading it. I found myself actually crying for this woman and what she endured. I liked the fact that it was "her" actual writings, not someone else telling what they think about her. All I know is "Times Have Sure Changed". Don't pass this one up!
