VOICE ONE:
I'm Shirley Griffith.
VOICE TWO:
And I'm Tony Riggs with People in America. Today we tell about writer Willa Cather.
(MUSIC)
VOICE ONE:
The second half of the nineteeth century brought major changes to the United States. From its earliest days, America had been an agricultural society. But after the end of the Civil War in eighteen sixty-five, the country became increasingly industrial. And as the population grew, America became less unified.
After railroads linked the Atlantic coast with the Pacific coast, the huge Middle West of the country was open to settlement. The people who came were almost all from Europe. There were Swedes and Norwegians, Poles and Russians, Bohemians and Germans.
Many of them failed in their new home. Some fled back to their old homeland. But those who suffered through the freezing winters and the burning summers and the failed crops became the new pioneers. They were the men and women celebrated by the American writer Willa Cather.
Willa Cather
VOICE TWO:
Cather's best stories are about these pioneers. She told what they sought and what they gained. She wrote of their difficult relations with those who followed. And she developed a way of writing, both beautiful and simple, that made her a pioneer too.
For many women in the nineteenth century, writing novels was just one of the things they did. For Willa Cather, writing was her life.
