Looking Back: Canadian Women's Prairie Memoirs and Intersections of Culture, History, and Identity - The West
S. Leigh Matthews
When we think about women settlers on the Prairies, our notions tend to veer between the nostalgic image of the “cheerful helpmate” and the grim deprivation of the “reluctant immigrant”. In this book, Matthews shows how a critical approach to the life-writing of individual prairie women can broaden and deepen understanding of the settlement era.
