Exile, Nature, and Transformation in the Life of Mary Hallock Foote

A book about exile and transformation. It is primarily about Mary Hallock Foote, artist and writer, easterner-turned-westerner, but it is a hybrid work - as well as being about Mary, it is about what it has been like for the author, a twenty-first century American expatriate, to find common ground in the life of a nineteenth century woman.
