American Masters Laura Ingalls Wilder: Prairie to Page Storyline

Laura Ingalls Wilder is celebrated for her autobiographical fiction that helped record the expansion of the American frontier into the Midwest. Laura was born in 1867 to Charles and Caroline Ingalls in a log cabin north of Pepin, Wisconsin in the woods that border the upper Mississippi River: their “Little House in the Big Woods”. When she was two years old, she and her family moved to Indian country in the territory of Kansas, the setting for “Little House on the Prairie.” They returned to Wisconsin before moving to a dugout dwelling “On the Banks of Plum Creek” near Walnut Grove, Minnesota. Eventually, her father accepted a railroad job in 1879 moving everyone to DeSmet, South Dakota. She began a brief teaching career two months shy of her 16th birthday. That ended when she married 28-year-old Almanzo Wilder. After early years burdened with crop failures and health problems, they ended up in the Mansfield, Missouri area. The Wilders were always short of funds, so their daughter Rose, already a well established writer, encouraged Laura to write her stories to sell to publishers. Her initial autobiography, “Pioneer Girl”, was rejected with suggestions to rewrite it for children. Rose was hugely responsible for the successful transformation of this manuscript into the Little House series. The first of those was published when Laura was 65. The pair kept secret that Rose was ghostwriting the books from her mother’s notes. This became apparent from letters between the two that have now surfaced.

American Masters Laura Ingalls Wilder: Prairie to Page Movie Reviews

Needed to keep it focused

Needed to keep it focused. Easy to Monday morning QB. In 50 years – what will be rewritten of today’s art, music and literature?

Your agenda is showing PBS

Evil, racist white people steal from and live in terror of being near Indians. This is the basis of “Little house on the prairie”. Good grief.

It was great, until we got to the politically correct part of the show

God save us all from a liberal American.

While a great deal of the show was great, hearing the thoughts and opinions of scholars who have studied the Ingalls and Wilder families extensively, they lost me at the end.

Like all true liberals, let’s not take the book and its contents at face value, using the context of the times to better understand the book and the woman. No, no, no! We have to have it parsed to death, declaring Laura Ingalls Wilder, and anyone who lived in that time horrible, racist person.

There are actually people who wish to sanitize the Little House books until there’s nothing left but a couple paragraphs, to be sure. Why do people feel the need to remove all traces of the history of this country?

Instead of disparaging someone who brought a great deal of joy to a generation, awakening in children around the world a strong desire to read, how about we use the books as a teaching tool? How about discussions about how far we’ve come as a people?

When the documentary got to the point of people saying they wanted whole swaths of the book removed, they lost me. It’s okay for “artists” to hang a picture of a cross sitting in a jar of urine and the world embraces the “artist.” But let’s allow a writer, who’s been long dead, to be vilified for something she thought as a child and probably didn’t believe as an adult.

God save us from a liberal American. They won’t be happy until every single person in the world thinks exactly the same as everyone else.

I don’t recommend this documentary. It really became a propaganda tool for progressives.
