Edith Lewis met Willa Cather in 1903 and remained her close friend and traveling companion until Cather's death in 1947. In this straightforward and affectionate biography Lewis illuminates the human side of the great American novelist.
John J. Murphy, a professor of English at Brigham Young University, is the author of My Antonia: The Road Home and the editor of Literature and Belief.
"A singularly lambent and luminous narrative . . . It has more than a touch of the radiance and simplicity that were Miss Cather's own special gifts."—Chicago Sunday Tribune
"A pleasant book, affectionately written in a clear, firm hand."—New Yorker
